An early morning eastbound GO train is viewed entering Milton, Ontario on the CP Galt Subdivision where it will make it’s first station stop of the day, loading commuters for the trip into Toronto. At the time, all the GO trains on the CP line were based out of the Guelph Jct layover facility and every weekday morning, the eastbound parade of five empty train sets would descend the Niagara Escarpment into Milton about a half hour apart.

    Thats a beautiful setting for a GO shot. You have to wonder how long it will be before the area is houses, condos and strip malls.

    You’re right Arnold. It’s actually amazing nothing is there yet, as of last time I was by there.

    This was back when getting-up at 5am was no problem when you’re younger. It was the only time I was ever at this spot this early.

    Agreed. It takes special determination these days to drag oneself out of bed that early for a GO train. :o )
