VIA 6419
Title:  VIA 6419
Description:  You never know just when VIA Train 2 is going to enter the home stretch to Toronto Union Station. But you've got to be ready to catch it anywhere from 0900 to about 1400, so it's really a hit and miss most of the time.

VIA 6419
Title:  VIA 6419
Description:  A closer look at Train 2. When I look back at VIA train pics from the olden days, I realize how much I really like the current, and somewhat unusual, paint scheme

CN 2721
Title:  CN 2721
Description:  My favorite shot of the month. With the sun hiding for most of the morning, I lucked out as this inbound intermodal stayed in the sun, and out of the shadows, long enough for a decent pic.

CN 7080
Title:  CN 7080
