Hi Craig, nice to see Martins siding being used again for
train meets. With the Gravenhurst siding out of service, I guess this is the first siding north of Washago. Great that you had your three your old son with you. I took my children on all sorts of photo outings and even on rail excursions. It was a great way to “baby sit”, and they have some good early age memories, as I do. Very good picture , lots of colourful, and interesting lash-up on 450.
Thanks for sharing this picture.
