This is one of those shots that turned out a lot nicer than I figured it would. It is getting into the later afternoon and usually the sun has made a run for it by the time the Starlite shows up. But today, it was early, as it sometimes was on Sundays, no TH&B power aboard, alas...   But still, CP 5942, 5718 and 8152 make for a nice scene as it rolls by the area we used to be able to park at many years ago. I looked up CP 8152 in the CTG as the number did not register with me. No wonder. It was re-manufactured into 1274 by 1986 and then became Control Cab 1153 in 2004. It is gone now. You very well may be shaving with it.

  1. Nice close shot.

  2. Stunning! Everything came together beautifully. 5942 has a 3-D quality to it.

  3. Thanks, Robert. Sometimes I got lucky. I keep thinking we must have crossed paths at Bayview over the many years pre-1990 but names I rarely learned, it was trains we were all after.

  4. Lets try: 43.290 and -79.888. I have been laying off co-ordinates on some photos because I am close to the 1000 limit on my profile map.

  5. OOPS!!! Disregard co-ordinates comment. Wrong photo request.

  6. Arnold don’t worry about your limit, keep adding them

    What happens after 1000 is the newest 1000 will show up on the map..

    but I’ll work to make it a larger map if I can :)
