Railpictures.ca - Unknown, Dan Dell'Unto coll. Photo: A trio of CN “Railiner” Budd RDC’s with RDC-1 6114 trailing accelerate through Port Credit station, eastbound on the Oakville Sub crossing over the Hurontario Street underpass heading eastbound bound for Toronto. A CP local freight is visible in the distance switching nearby, utilizing interswitching rights over the CN Oakville Sub (that CP had running rights over to Hamilton Junction). As well as the triple track mainline, there were a few service tracks, siding, storage and team tracks here at Port Credit. A spur branched off south (out of view) to the old St. Lawrence Starch plant in Port Credit (demolished in the mid-90′s). Just visivle on the left was the old “shed track” that used to run behind the old CN Port Credit station to the freight shed beside it. The station was demolished sometime around 1973-75 (fell out of favour due to new GO facilities maybe?) and this became a team track.
