  1. No doubt the PU, likely one of the pups will be set off at Guelph Jct, Galt or Woodstock. The set for the pickup & 50 in the morning out of Quebec Street was 3 pups most of the time until later 70s. If there were more than that, they were usually for the branches.

  2. Great photo. Something about black and white imagery that gives it class, as well making it a classic picture! Miss the days of seeing mixed power, or in this instance four ‘pups’ leading the way.
