What's going on (and not going on) in S. Ontario

Omer Lavallee's roster shows 815 as disposed of in 9/60. I don't think it ran in any other fantrips.
I've just located my photos of the run; I'll post them after they're scanned.

In model railroading, there are between six and two hundred ways of performing a given task.
Most modellers can get two of them to work.

The Doubleheaders's home layouts tour is coming up next Saturday (28 Mar.) Guelph, Kitchener, Cambridge.
There is talk that Aberfoyle Junction may lose their site this year (I think it depends partly on economics). This tour might give you a last look at it.
And the tour maps are reputed to be much improved this year.

David, this site seems to confirm that the Triple Header was 815's final run.

Have you seen this site ? Looks to have a good deal of old Canadian info.
Thanks for the idea to look into some of this. Bob C.

Bob,

That's sad... But thanks for the reminder of "Old Time Trains". A great resource... Thumbsup

Photos from 1960. Please remember I was 13 at the time.

Wow, those are neat pics, David! The Forks of the Credit area is also one of my favourite hiking places, so it's great to see the triple-header going through there. Rob
