A Canada Day tradition---riding the Niagara Peninsula RR. Wine Train.A very popular attraction in the fruit growing region of southern Ontario is a train ride which includes dinner and wine tasting as the train travels through scenic farms and vineyards.This train was so popular that the Leetown Division has partnered with the NPRR. to add an extended route from Lowbanks to Beeton.On this part of the trip CNR steam locomotive E10A #91,open observation car Mount Resplendent and a private observation car #44 for those willing to pay an extra fee are included in the consist.Typically most of the "true rail fans" like to ride in the Mount Resplendent while their spouses prefer the air conditioned comfort of the coach,Pullman car or diner.  Most riders in car #44 are just enjoying the open bar.  I caught the Wine Train on the Stoney Creek Incline as it travelled through the Leetown Division.
