Railpictures.ca - A.W.Mooney Photo: I’m up on the McQuesten bridge (aka: The High Level) looking toward the Hwy 403 and have captured a couple of shots of a trio of MLW C-424s leading a train; which is something I would never pass up. Not even back then. I am thinking this must be the daily 271 (270′s counterpart) that ran up the hill to the Jct and west on the run from Binghamton to Chicago. Power is CP 4228, 4219 and 4214. Construction is for future anticipation of GO Transit traffic. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

Awesome shot! I miss the C424′s that used to turn up on the Ham turn as well. I remember back then as well it often ran as all racks as for a while Aberdeen yard and the old TH&B car shop there was used to fix the racks then send them up to Toyota for loading.
