CP 8791 and 8737 with a work train drifting down the grade from Waterdown en route to Aberdeen Yd in West Hamilton. The track in the foreground is known as "CN Cowpath" and the building in the lower corner, at the time MoW storage and now is long gone, was once the site of a Grand Trunk passenger station.

  1. When was the station removed?

  2. Forgotten when the building came out. I would have to guess mid to late 1980s.It was the sort of “happening” in which all of a sudden someone would notice it gone. I’d have to go thru pictures, but do not remember it being there when we were all shooting #328 in the mornings off the hillside at Ham West.
