Comments on: The massive cube cars, loaded with auto parts for Ford appear to overpower the diminutive switchers that are in charge of them. CP SW1200RS 8127, 8107 and 8156 are crossing the Humber River westbound at roughly mile 7.3 Galt sub. All but one of the 72 locos in this series were off the roster according to the CTG by 2013; having been built in the late 1950s; ending up victims of old age. Below, one can see it is a nice spring day and the citizens are taking advantage of spring awakening.

Glad you are enjoying my oldies, Lad. Geez, that pic is from 11 years ago already. I wish I had known to sharpen them better.

Great scene, Arnold. Shows off the old Toronto Suburban Railway bridge footings nicely.

An interesting, typical “Mooney” perspective on this shot Arnold. I was disappointed when CP stopped serving the Ford oakville plant. Their local trains often had interesting power or freight cars and ran several times over the course of the day.

Bet it was, now that you mention it. But if you want the honest truth, Mr. Slick, I just have plum fergotten!!! (too many years back)
Glad you like the image. For me, it is “different”. And I am wondering why I did not return.

Love this! Was this photo taken from the Dundas Street overpass?
