I enjoyed the second wind of these beasts when they came back to life for 3 more years (2019-2021), before being unceremoniously parked and sold in April 2021. This was a chance encounter, meaning unplanned, noting brilliant sky after doing some family things nearby and heading home for Guelph I realized I needed to find something, anything moving. Then  the 1600 calls out of the yard to go to Parkdale - perfect. I perched quickly on a high spot to get as much sky as possible - Ferguson ave -  and the GMD-1's were the power for the train. After this I rolled on home.

  1. Btw that’s Hambone’s favorite scenery – the Barton st jail at left.

  2. Nice exposure! I’m glad I got that set while it lasted.
