Back in the days when the massive MLWs were the pride of the fleet, we see a pair of M-636s and a C-424 powering a train about to take the Dundas sub and head up the Copetown hill westbound. Power is 2319, 2309 and 3227. Those were the good times !!

  1. A.W. what ever happened to the Bayview sign?

  2. Somehow I get the feeling you are making an assumption of some mischievous nature. :o ) The old wooden sign is NOT in my garage. I’ll bet it got broken up and tossed when a replacement aluminum sign went up a long time back. Not getting that sign is one of life’s disappointments. I do wonder where it ended up.

  3. The though never crossed my mind A.W.
    Art Hatch and I used to sit with a few other railfans at the top of the bluff and the sign was allways one of the topics that came up. After lenthy talks it was generaly assumed that it was first come, first served for who ever got to the scrap pile first! Lol

  4. I thought they broke them in two before discarding them. Unless, of course, there was a begging railfan nearby.

  5. When Walt was at the juction he used to hand the stuff out to anyone close so he didn’t have to get rid of it. Broken cross bucks, broken road gates what ever there was it had to go. He used to save it the siginal end of the station but no one would come and pick it up. So he said, I have a better idea. Oh by the way did Bill pass on the photo of the early Puslinch station that I sent to him for you?

  6. Probably. Forgive me for forgetting. I had computer failure a few years back and it is probably in that old hard drive. I do remember having a really nice shot of the old station. It must have been thru you. After all, Bill is trustworthy :o )
    Cheers

  7. Bill had changes email address and I didn’t know. Just sent the photo now and you shold have it shortly. Merry Christmas.

  8. Thanks, Lad. Best to you!!
