    Nice shot, Jason. Looks like trackwork is underway for the reopening of the Hamilton GO Centre in 1996.

    Look at the absence of garbage on the ground.
    Today this place looks like a landfill.

    Thanks for all the comments guys.

    Yes Jacob there was construction there for the future GO station. I believe there was a slow order for trains passing the site.
