For many northern communities train time was a special time, even in the Eighties. The 1980 Paris Jct. shot of Via#6532 by Jim Adeney prompted me to pull this 1984 image of #6532 leading Via train #2. August 29, 1984 Kodachrome by S.Danko. More Via Canadian: #1410 at Bradford #4066 at Maple at Bathurst Street CP#8529-8473 at Bathurst Street at Leaside sdfourty.
