Saw several things at Bayview that Id never seen in person before: MLW locomotives, Alco PAs, extra flags, even RDCs. But all this black smoke - that kind of reminded of ICG back home. |

GOT 720 |
Description: |
As evidenced by the deep shadows, this was quite late in the day. I had spent the entire day at Bayview Jct and only realized at this point that there was an actual view of a bay...(duh). I do not know what number train this was, but its a late commuter departing Hamilton for points east. |

THB 77 |
Description: |
A woefully under exosed photo, but its not like I have a bunch of TH&B shots to pick and choose from. I recall this unit idling on a track immediately adjacent to a public park - no fence, no security, no sign of any railroad activity near it. And nobody messed with it. Things were definitely different railfanning in Canada. |

THB 76 |
Description: |
So Conrail had some run-through or trackage rights on the CN between Buffalo and Detroit. Makes sense - shortest rout would be through Ontario. The local guys thought it was cool catching Conrail blue at Bayview, but it kind of bummed me out - not what I wanted to see in Canada. But then I noticed this guy right in the middle of that blue lash-up... |

VIA 6775 |
Description: |
So youd think that if I recorded the number of a passenger train, I would likely have jotted down the name of it as well. You would be wrong. I know this was train #83, but no clue what the name might be. So if anybody knows what name VIA #83 went by in the summer of 1984, lay it on me. |

Description: |
I had seen photos of RDCs before, but didnt know that VIA was still running them. Was kind of surprised when this train - #682 - came through the interchange. |

OK, this one is not IN Canada, but you know All Things Canadian... Anyway, funny how cool we thought these wide-vision cabs were back in the 80s - CN was pretty much the only road that had them. Oh, the irony! Now that you hardly ever see anything else anywhere, my opinion of them is considerably altered... |

I did not record the name or number of this train - making its station stop here in Belleville, ON - but I suspect it might be The Trillium. That is the same locomotive that I caught on The Trillium the day before at Bayview Jct... |

Yeah, this is not in Canada either, but I wanted to post this photo just because it is such a stark contrast to the eventual fate of this unit. Just pull up the database photos for CP 5500, youll see what I mean. |

I love snow in October! I distinctly remember the local folks referring to his as flurries. It was a quick hit and melted away pretty fast, but fun while it lasted... |
