Railpictures.ca - A.W.Mooney Photo: CN 5085, 5148 and 5257 roll to a stop at Atikokan station, running westbound. Upon leaving here they will be entering the Fort Frances Sub. I’m unsure what the unit train contents consisted of, only that it is empties on return, (potash?) but I am sure of who the photographer is that could not get his shadow out of the photo in the late afternoon sun. :o) The station was demolished around 2012. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

That’s a long way from Niagara. Another good photo that has become historic.
The photographer? Only The Shadow Knows.
