Cold days of winter brings out the glory of steam to its fu;ll extent. Proof positive is CN 6218 making its way north on the Bala Sub, with a train of railfans. Passing under the CPR, 6218 makes a beautiful sight from the shoulder of the Don Valley Parkway. Back in 1965, the DVP was quiet on a weekend, and pulling off for the occasional train picutre was no problem.
