    This is way too cool Darrell, being from Ajax myself!

    That was a great spot to shoot, and I did the odd shot there, but nothing like that! Probably the most interesting use of the VIA F40′s on CP I’ve seen.

    So much has changed in the almost 20 years since you took this… all houses in the background now.

    Thanks for the nice comments. Seems most good rail fanning spots are disappearing with the urban sprawl. A short walk in use to get an nice s curve picture, but with over growth its gone as well.
