VIA 6455 is leading VIA #693 The Hudson Bay on its journey from Winnipeg to Churchill, MB on this beautiful March 12 afternoon. During the stop at the majestic Dauphin, MB CNR (1912) station I grabbed a few shots of the sunlit station building and surroundings, then headed to the front of the train to catch this view of the head end, the station/museum, a CN van on display, and some crew/passenger activity during the stop. The start of what was to be another fabulous Canadian train voyage. :-)

    Nice. Were you tempted to step over the two rails to your right.

    You know I was! But I did not. I hadn’t met the head end crew yet and didn’t want to overstep my bounds without their consent. Next time! :-) The on-board crew was kind enough to let me take some shots from the open top-half of the vestibule door upon arrival at several locations along the way.
