Railpictures.ca - sdfourty Photo: Definitely the CN Bala Sub at Richmond Hill. My notes have this as VIA #120 Saturday only scheduled 13:10 Union arrival – except the shadows are rather long… Officially the Northlander trains were ONR #121 and 122. The CN weekend service for Muskoka and beyond was originally conventional equipment until the mail contracts were canceled, then Budd cars throughout the late sixties / seventies. And throughout the eighties VIA employed otherwise idle ONR equipment. And do consider – during this time CN Washago was serviced by 44 passenger trains each week.
