Caption: Wabash F7A 671 crosses the St. Thomas diamond with the London & Port Stanley Railway, heading eastbound on CN's Chatham-Cayuga Subs in 1967. A selection of vintage automobiles are parked next to the old Wabash/GTR station on the left, and semaphore signals guard the interlocking from movements on the L&PS.

This location, known on the timetables as St. Thomas, was the transition point from Mile 0.0 CN Chatham Sub to the west, to Mile 119.0 CN Cayuga Sub to the east, both formerly Grand Trunk lines (that the Wabash had running rights over) and originally built as the Great Western Railway's "Canada Air Line". The L&PS crossed this junction point north-sound at the diamond pictured. They were taken over in 1965 by CN and the line became the CN Talbot Sub and later Talbot Spur (the diamond here was Mile 15.0).
