Annexed by the city of London in 1993, Hyde Park once featured a small station at this location, and a branch (Ilderton sub) that ran north from this location to Clinton Jct, on what is now the GEXR. Visible above the cab of CN 5320 is a bridge that allowed passage of trains northward under the CP Windsor Sub up until the early 1990's when the portion south of Exeter was abandoned and torn up. The crew of CN 330 probably doesn't notice the old right of way (now a hiking trail) as they coast downgrade towards London with a short train of mostly tank cars.
