On the yard engine we'd sometimes run by the station on the outside tracks, 13 or 14. I recall one hogger who used to knock off a small bottle of whiskey during a shift (it was the old days) and going by the trainshed, he'd fling the bottle out the window onto the shed roof. I often wondered how many 'empties' were up there & would they be seen once the tower was completed. I worked for a short time for CN in Toronto in 1973 when they were building the CN tower.

I worked on Church street for a while and would have lunch on the back deck of the St Lawrence Market to watch the trains go by. Thanks for sharing this.
