I'm thinking the westbound CP Budds are running rather late. According to what I recall, this train normally would depart Fort Erie around 1700 hrs for Toronto; but in this case, it is almost sundown. The image is of CP #9071 leading as it crosses Pettit Rd under the very last rays of the day. Only a couple more years left and this would be another train to fade into the history books.

    I enjoy the Penn Cenntral sign, since that was a control point and CTC… CP PETTIT

    I remember in 2005 one of these bungalows was in Chatham with one of these signs still on it on CP by the diamond. Being used as a hut for something.
