The first freight train in North America that I laid eyes on...wow! They are soooo long!
I think b-and-w really gives freight trains character!
Note the numerous rail vehicles in the background. This station was constructed by Canadian Northern to compete against the CPR station on the other side of town. However, it was not succesful. No... (more)
From Ottawa to Toronto.
After the better part of a day at Smiths Falls, this train is taking me back to Ottawa.
After dropping me off in Smiths Falls, VIA 43 continues to Toronto.

These cars used to carry mined ore.
Bright and cheerful...
A very old diesel-electric.
