Viewing Album:  Toronto CP Galt, MacTier and North Toronto Subs
 
By:Brad Ketchen
Dates:8/6/2020 - 10/27/2020
Album Info:I now reside in the infamous area of The Junction, Toronto. It finds me down the street from Lambton Yard and close to the Junction of CP Galt (West), MacTier CP (North) and North Toronto sub to the East. My shots are HDR on my Android smart phone. THe ex-CN Weston sub also runs North and South here but has been taken over by Metrolinx with an onsloaught of Passeneger trains. A CN local comes down the Weston into CP Lambton yard in the middle of the night. Back in the day this was a hub of activity from both railroads, hence the name 'The Junction'. As well CN ran North and South East of on the 'Newmarket sub' also a host of Metrolinx GO Transit trains nowadays.
