Comments on: Pictured is the ETR’s 1530 job crossing the CPKC Mainline, protected by the signal on a mast. Note the conductor a few cars back – the ETR folks work quick – they don’t mess around. After switching cars near head office/walker yard, they brought a cut of cars directly to interchange with this feller riding all the way. Talk about terminal service! Note ETL 107 is a former EMD Demonstrator SW1500 former EMDX 113. What’s the building in the background? is it related to customs or border protection?

Thanks Myles. I would never have thought ETR Yellow would be gone this fast. (for now).

Good catch. The building on the left is a medical center and the brick building to the right is a pump station for the CP-Howard Ave. underpass.

Oh, rats. I think they just want to keep the kids off it from the nearby school.

It actually technically doesn’t. There are no pedestrian signs before the brige. However that hasn’t stopped me from grabbing a few shots of a good train on there

Ouelette ave is a typically pedestrian unfriendly bridge but it does allow folks to walk across it.

It’s always nice getting a shot from up there – when there’s no cars of course

I’ve found a few different businesses credited to that address online, most of which are now at other addresses. Not sure who’s there now.
