Comments on: This is as much about the main subject as the background. I am not certain about the pattern, but VIA must have been switching and servicing their power as it came through Calgary. This set came off an eastbound “Canadian”, the only train operated with locomotives passing through Calgary at the time. In the background is the turntable and roundhouse that seemed to have little use, except for the switchers. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?
