Comments on: January 14, 1967 was a special day for fans of the Toronto Hamilton & Buffalo Railway, as the Upper Canada Railway Society ran an excursion covering TH&B and NYC lines (NYC owning 73% of the TH&B, CPR the other 27%) in Southern Ontario, and included utilizing an NYC GP9 on the point. Here, the train waits to depart Hunter Street station for the first leg of the trip, Hamilton – Waterford. From there, the train will run east on the NYC’s CASO to Welland, where it will turn back west on the TH&B going Welland – Hamilton.Bill Thomson shot the train at “Summit” near Copetown. Stay tuned for Doug Page’s shot just across the tracks from Bill.Doug Page Photo, Bruce Acheson Collection Slide. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?

First one was going up the hill towards Summit they had to stop;the brakes on the 7504 were dragging. The second one was them having to operate the train from the 402. Any more stories are welcome.
