Comments on: TH&B X 763 at Aberdeen Avenue yard in Hamilton, ON in early summer 1976 doesn’t look so bad for 52 years old. Although that fresh coat of yellow paint certainly helps obscure some of life’s blemishes. From information I’ve gathered (on the internet), this car was built by C.C.&F. in 1924 as baggage car 51. It was converted to MoW service and renumbered to X 763. It was retired from service in 1984 at 60 years old Having gone through at lot of my old photos since retiring 5 years ago, I look back now and wish I had splurged for another roll or two of film, and captured so much more of what was out there!
