CNS&M Silverliner 756 at Highwood Shops
Title:  CNS&M Silverliner 756 at Highwood Shops
Description:  CNS&M Silverliner coach 756 and others at Highwood Shops shortly after abandonment. I was using a Kowaflex SLR camera which was their original version that did not have a removable lens and you used adapters. I wanted to try the wide angle adapter for "drama". But it also caused the vignetting. Thankfully the 15 year old version of myself would be able to shortly move up to a Miranda DR.

CNS&M Cars behind North Shore LIne Fence, Highwood Shops
Title:  CNS&M Cars behind North Shore LIne Fence, Highwood Shops
Description:  This a view of a fence at the CNS&M Highwood Shops with numerous cars visible behind shortly after abandonment. Its hard to see, but "NORTH SHORE LINE" is still barely visible painted in large letters on the fence. Some word or words preceded this, but I dont know what they were. Perhaps "RIDE THE NORTH SHORE LINE" as C&NW trains passed right by that fence.
