Caption: Back to my oldies, we were given a heads up this exhibit car was coming for Railway Days in St. Thomas, so I chased down the Talbot sub a bit. This picture shows the entire train, only 5 revenue cars from Ford Buffalo Stamping on the South Buffalo Railway. NS would drop this car in the St. Thomas yard before heading to Talbotville. Pity the motive power, which at the time was very boring, but alas, you get what you get. At this time the Talbot Subdivision had four trains per day (three each way). Two NS and two CN (A day and night shift)..

Very nice catch! I missed this one, the 2 MP repainted boxcars are neat too, I haven’t seen many of those on 327/328 back then.
