Album Info:Lots of April sunshine means lots of April trains. Plenty of the usual CN action, as well as VIA passenger trains in Whitby (at the site of the new GO Transit Train Maintenance facility), and in Pefferlaw. Toss in a few GO Transit shots at the mouth of the Rouge River at Lake Ontario, and Agawa Canyon power on a CN Track Inspection Train, to complete the set.
