A pair of pups wait on the Uxbridge Sub with a short local while Extra 3637 west flies by on the Oshawa Sub mainline for Mimico. The new Scarborough Junction station can be seen beyond the power, built in 1964 to replace the second station, which burnt down in 1960. This structure stood until the Midland Avenue grade separation project in 1977-78.Scan and editing by Jacob Patterson.

    Oh my…
    Those Pups seemed to be everywhere !
    And throughout the seventies the GMD-1′s, the 1000 series, were active every evening in the SJ yard (as I wacked golf balls at the nearby range), departing by 10pm as the north / east bound Uxbridge Sub way freight to Lindsay / Peterborough.

    SDFourty, please tell us more about “ten hundreds” assigned to southern Ontario…I’ve alway thought of them as “Western Lines” engines (primarily on the Prairies but also Vancouver Island and occasionally Lakehead Division).
