Very interesting, and a rare photo! Thanks for sharing this piece of history!
The little girl would be about the same age as my wife; not quite 60 now. Another wonderful scene from rural Ontario when Peel County north of Brampton was out in the country.
This is stunning, to say the least. Perfect shot.
Back to a much better time. Leave the auto in the garage. Open the windows and smell the World out there. And he has a trailer following for overflow. Beautiful
That area has changed quite a bit. there is a small park where the freight shed and ramp were. the station is long gone, trees everywhere and Airport Road is much busier.
An amazing shot, and in colour to boot. Thank you for sharing.
Great shot. Definately shows a time that has changed drastically through the years, not just fr the sake of the railroad and the perfect country scene, but geographiically as well (from reading other rp.ca users comments). Just….wonderful
Wonderful scene, thanks for sharing ! As a pre-teen fan, I would look forward to train 663 arriving at Burlington in the very late afternoon, rocking and rolling along the Milton Sub until it made the station stop.
But if this is Caledon East, it would be the Beeton Subdivision.
Ian, a wonderful , historical picture recalling many good memories, like the red front door being opened slightly to let air in to keep the engineer moderately cool. Photographed 15836 at Blackwater Jct when it was on the Lindsay-Atherley-Orillia-Midland run, but that service had ended when you took this picture. Did ride on C1 when it was part of D1-C1-C2 combo through Caledon East on my way from Beeton to Georgetown, and yes it was the Beeton Sub then. Thanks very much for sharing John
