The early morning hours find the entrance to the one time Toronto ,Hamilton & Buffalo station seem very lifeless, but this is only temporary, as GO Transit commuter trains idle away above awaiting the morning rush hour call to duty. Soon hordes of Toronto bound commuters will gather in the main lobby and on trackside platforms. The old TH&B station has been beautifully restored, inside and out.

    Very nicely done photo Marcus. It portrays very well that mid 20th century feel of visiting the railroad station. I see they have GO Hamilton Centre above the door. Did they leave the TH & B letters on the brow of the building when they restored it? Works for me if they left them up there. ;-)

    So good when they can re-purpose such a handsome structure. Nice work on this one, Marcus.

    No kidding. I have passed that place dozens of times and never once thought about how nice a photo such as this would look. It is far better than the resulting number of “stars” will indicate.

    Sometimes we easily pass by the beautiful architecture this country has to offer, especially if their is no train in the image :)
