A great catch. Us fans of the TH&B can gaze at photos like this and reflect on the memories.

I don’t remember much of the TH&B… i was 10 when it was absorbed.. but I sure like looking anyway Nice shot Peter. Black and white just seems to suit the grittiness of Hamilton.

Thanks Arnold and Steve for your nice comments. I’m glad that you liked the shot! I only visited the Chatham Street roundhouse once. Who knew it would all be gone so soon? I was shooting a very high speed film that day – in retrospect, it was a good decision… it seemed to properly capture the gritty spirit of the scene.
