Shortly before GO Transit's debut in May 1967, test runs were underway along the Oakbville and Kingston Subs between Oakville and Pickering, the two original terminating points. Extra GO 602 west approaches the Humber River bridge during a test run from Spadina out to Oakville. After pausing at Oakville, the train will head east to Pickering before returning to Spadina. Scan and editing by Jacob Patterson.

    Nice shot John! You can see the old Stelco sign for their Swansea Bolt Works factory in the background.
