  1. A great catch. Us fans of the TH&B can gaze at photos like this and reflect on the memories.

  2. I don’t remember much of the TH&B… i was 10 when it was absorbed.. but I sure like looking anyway ;) Nice shot Peter. Black and white just seems to suit the grittiness of Hamilton.

  3. Thanks Arnold and Steve for your nice comments. I’m glad that you liked the shot! I only visited the Chatham Street roundhouse once. Who knew it would all be gone so soon? I was shooting a very high speed film that day – in retrospect, it was a good decision… it seemed to properly capture the gritty spirit of the scene.
