Caption: London-bound CN Buddcars are 14 minutes out of Union when on time, putting this train #663 at 1059 at West Toronto station back on a Sunday in March of 1977. For some odd reason I for once had the foresight to list the Buddcars, CN 6208, 6115, 6118, 6005 and 6113. It is my understanding 6208 survives.....somewhere.

Good catch Arnold.
This takes me back, as I worked those jobs in the early 80′s still with the Budd’s.
The remains of the station platform area existed until just recently, when Metrolinx dug up the area for the grade separation. The station and express building site were used as a City of Toronto compound lot for parking snowplow graders in previous years.
