Railpictures.ca - Paul M Cordingley Photo: My theory is that ex-GO Transit 513, now Amtrak 413, spent too much of the evening celebrating old times with its old cronies at Willowbrook, and was not in fit condition to haul Amtrak\’s Maple Leaf back to New York City. In any event, VIA 6409 had to be hustled out to Oakville to forward the tired unit onwards on its journey. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

F40WastedPH. It was probably showing off its new dynamic brakes to all its friends (delivered to GO without them, AMTK retrofitted).
