Railpictures.ca - Stephen C. Host Photo: Heading east on the Strathroy, it can look like the prairies if you want it to in a way. AN eastbound CN freight blasting through the fertile farmlands in Lambton County, once the railway was the life blood of the farmers and the only way to get product to market. Now only one rail customer remains on the Strathroy between the end of yard limits between London and Sarnia, at least it’s an agricultural facility though. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

Imagine this photo with a couple of 1400′s for power, sadly, that is only a wishful thought now.
