An all-day miserable snowstorm, much more frequent then than now; sets the scene for this image taken from the former railfan parking area at Bayview Junction. Perhaps this inclement weather is the reason GO 507, (GP40TC) is subbing for the usual CN tempo engine this time around. There are the standard 8 cars in tow. The 507, originally 607 when it joined on with GO Transit in 1966, went to Amtrak in 1988 as their 199.

    Certainly not “just another” GO Train picture.
    Was this on a weekend perhaps?
    CN using GO when not required on the commuter trains.
