GEXR meets OSR in Waterloo? It happened. Goderich and Exeter local No. 584 is returning from Elmira passing  "Tar Baby" who was leased to the Waterloo Central in the summer of 2007 for their operations. Here she rests in the siding, coupled to WCR's mix of passenger equipment next to the "new" Waterloo station built for the upstart Waterloo-St Jacob's Railway a decade prior. To say this area has undergone a major facelift, would be an understatement. The WCR hasn't been based out of Waterloo in years, relocating their base up the line to St Jacob's after the ION light rail project moved in, forever changing this scene.
