Caption: GO Transit F59PH #541 leads an eastbound deadhead move back to Willowbrook after carrying weary commuters back home to the steel city. This scene looks significantly different today, with work being done to install a third track between Bayview and the new West Harbour GO Transit station on the site of the old James street station in Hamilton. A new bridge will be located on the west side of the existing bridge over the canal - the abutments are in place, and interestingly, have been cast to resemble the old cut stone abutment of the bridge pictured above.
