Oh wouldn't you know it, a late winter 'snowstorm' started up as I waited out VIA's dinner-hour #75 westbound thru the Junction on an April 8th.an otherwise gloomy afternoon. The snow actually enhances the scene. I have recorded VIA 6524, 6659 and 6637 but omitted the last unit, a CN. Oh well. Car count a bit obscured by the fresh snow. Current railfans' hangout, the walkbridge, is barely visible in the background.

    You’ve got some brass ones to be shooting out in a snowstorm Mr. Mooney.

    Still great as usual. And educational as well.

    Awh….I know you’re ‘razzing’ me. Some snowstorm!! Of course in THIS day and age, yes, I would be foolish…….the odd flake falls and everyone piles up on the highways. The days of 99% sanity on the roads are long gone. It is down to about 65% now. :o )
