Wow
Nice. The units really stand out against the scene.
Southern Ontarians are very lucky to have seen these as long as they did, CN’s F units in zebra stripes looks gorgeous! Well captured!
This really is a tremendous image. Proves to us the days of drab landscape can be taken advantage of with the wide open sightlines. This was one of the best locations for shooting, and of course it is lost to the heavy foliage now; and worse, the area is pretty much off limits.
These old F units are mostly remembered jaunting along the Newton / Kincardine branches, having seen these when I was a wee lad in Palmerston, Listowel and Atwood. In 1988, we moved to Caledonia. I once was at a friends house the following year, and from their back window you could see a train pass coming off the Rymal and onto the Hagersville sub. That one time, was the last time I saw these F units leading a train… heading south to Hagersville
