A follow up photo to my previous one taken a few years earlier at the same location, this one shows VIA 6429 after it shed its Home Hardware paint for a coat of Telus green. The old station here has been refurbished but in a few years it will sit neglected again, sadly outliving its use as an actual station once the new GO station was built to the east of here and GO/Via station built at Aldershot. Thankfully the station survives today a few blocks away, restored as a museum.

    Hahaha Marcus… so true. Well, their interest in us didn’t pass, now did it? At least, so far :)

    Hey I always had this that I told younger folks, that if your girlfriend/wife doesn’t have a hobby, you become the hobby. While it’s not all bad, we all need hobbies :)

    I tell my wife the same all the time, and shopping isn’t allowed to be the hobby, LoL
