Comments on: Sometimes you find a gem online…Here we have TH&B GP9s 402 and 403 riding the turntable at the CPR John Street roundhouse in Toronto in the summer of 1958. I’m a little puzzled about this one–my understanding is that run-through power on the Toronto-Buffalo trains ceased after the TH&B and NYC dieselized in 1954 but CP continued to use steam between Toronto and Hamilton. However, this photo and others show that TH&B power at least handled passenger trains over the Oakville sub. Any insights out there? (Thanks to Steve Host for his help cleaning this one up.) http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?

I worked at John Street at the time. This power would be dispatched on the night Buffalo No.329 for NY City. I worked at John Street at the time.
