Caption: GO Transit GP40-2W 707 leads a 10-car train of bilevel commuter cars through Burlington West bound for Hamilton, after making its station stop at the nearby Burlington GO station. Cab car 205 trails the lead unit, and a 900-series APCU brings up the rear. The two tracks on the left are for CN's Halton Sub mainlines, branching off from the Oakville Sub here.
The old station (hidden by the train) was still in use by VIA at the time, but VIA would soon move its operations to the nearby GO station in another two years. Orange CN maintenance of way equipment sits stored on the Burlington West back tracks.
