Caption: It is a dull overcast Sunday afternoon as the southbound Toronto edition of the Canadian comes 'steaming' to a station stop at the CP station in Parry Sound. There are a few passengers but otherwise the same old characters wander over to meet the train and shoot the breeze. This scene is 35 years old already; the station is now a commercial enterprise and all the characters have moved on. Having said that, this character has moved on as well. Parry for trains is still busy, but the human interacting side of it is gone, longer nondescript trains with a single unit, or two, up front, a DPU and they all seem to look the same.
