Ontario Trains - November/December 2016 - Part 3
Author: Neil Barratt
The final chapter in my collection of photographs from along the CN Bala Subdivision over the past 15 years or so. Now, it's on to Niagara Falls where my wife and I have retired to our new home. So I now transition over to the CN Stamford Sub and the CP Hamilton Sub to see what kind of train action I can find to keep me happy.
