Since Parry Sound often appears to "roll up the sidewalks" after the dinner hour; one guy found a good way to pass the time. Head for the CP station and watch the trains come in.  It is rather late in the evening for the Super Continental #3 to be arriving at the station.  It's scheduled time was around 1800, and from the sun angle it is well past that.  But still bright enough for a decent image.  Power is CP 1409 and VIA 1961 with a fairly long train, considering it meets up with the Montreal section at Sudbury.
The CP 1409 was rebuilt into VIA 6557 in 1982.
