How the landscape has changed! Here's Cabin D looking rather lonely in the setting sun on a warm Aug evening. Now if I can only establish the time this picture was taken by my father...

    Lovely history shot. Thanks for sharing. The ‘S’ curved tracks at the left, are the Queens Quay lead?

    Brad, those two tracks at the “High Line” that bypasses Union Station; used exclusively by freight.

    @davebrook. The freight tracks look so independent or separated compared to now, that’s what got me wondering. Thanks for clarifying.

    Brad, the Queen Quay lead was west of that bridge and there was at one time a diamond there for the CP parkdale yard to access that area too…

    @Ravensworth. Right the Queens Quay lead came off the main the East side of the Ex. It’s documented on Google Earth ‘Southern Ontario Railway map’. Great photo to ‘spur’ further conversations of history around Cabin D!
