I almost feel like I should apologize for this one. Oh well. Was out at Brantford one fine day and decided to try something of a different shot as a light was up for an eastbound. How was I to know that it wasn't going to be a pair of ordinary old CNs?? Never fails. Try to get "artsy" and you get stung. So I end up with GCFX 6062 and GTW 5956; and the chase was on. Didn't really do any better than this, as the later afternoon sun was in my face everywhere I tried to shoot this.

    I was still in college, so I missed this one. Yay Brantford! :)

    You never knew what was coming in those days. No crazy social media. Few had a cell phone. No legions of fans chasing the flavor of the week or day all over.

    Just signals, or radio, local friends and the occasional holy shit.
