I spent the good part of the afternoon in Windsor, Ontario to shoot the Essex Terminal Railway and other Canada-only goodies

So apparently a CP police car had it's keys locked inside so a locksmith had to come to unlock the vehicle

OG, all your pictures are great but I especially like the GP38-2W and whatever CP calls their GP20 rebuilds 8)

Anyone know what's going on at Milwaukee Jct.?

Great photos Ogauge47. I have been too lazy to get my passport renewed so I have not been to Windsor in a long time,
