There's no mistaking the location, but I've rarely ever seen an engine go into this facility at 800 Parkdale Ave North in Hamilton. Interestingly enough I worked for Philip Services in the summer of '98 and this was one of our facilities I supported. You can see why I love the North End - I worked here for 2 summers. Loved it then, wish I brought a camera along in those days!

  1. Railink, nice. You must have a lot of shots from these areas over the years. I only just started exploring down in “the hole” just over a year ago. Recently, more so, since I live nearby now :)

  2. But I’m careful not to tread too much in Mr. Knott’s territory :)

  3. Haha, tread away. I don’t get the whole territory thing – trains are confined to rails and thus only go to so many places, and eventually we all end up in many of those same places as a result. Pretty much guarantee someone else preceded most of us in a lot of this. Especially here in the GTHA.

  4. @jknott86: The territory thing is just a joke. It just seems railfanners have their stomping grounds probably because it’s close to where they live, which makes sense.

  5. Shoot away :) Hamilton is awesome

    Yes i have a good collection. More to come
