The final Sunday. My tribute to the 'Northlander'. This pic taken at Gormley (near the site of the new GO Station that will serve the Richmond Hill line) on Sunday morning - the last Sunday journey to Cochrane before this train is terminated for good on September 28, 2012. Regular passengers must really be looking forward to the 9-hour bus trip that will replace the journey by train. |

Description: |
BUT WAIT! How about a rousing encore for the 'Northlander'!?! I didn't expect to see this train ever again, but wouldn't you know it, after catching an incoming Saturday morning VIA train at Pine Orchard, then a CN freight at Herald Road, I stumbled onto the Northlander waiting at the Quaker siding and knew that I had not one moment to lose if I wanted to get a shot of her in the sunshine. I chased her (and I mean chased!) from Stouffville to Van Dorf, and just barely had time to leap out of the car, and snap this shot of the empty train as it hit the grade crossing at Warden Avenue - destined for its home base in the great Ontario north. |

I had hoped for the weather to cooperate as I ventured out to capture the Northlander's last days of operation. Fortunately, all the weeding I did around the tracks would pay off later in the week when I caught the very last Northlander inbound for Toronto Union Station, at just about the same time, but without the clouds. |

Just had to head out this morning to catch the last Ontario Northlander train heading for Cochrane. Sad day for railfans. Actually quite a crowd gathering at my usual hangout at McCowan Road, so I headed for Mount Albert overpass to get a more majestic panorama. |
