Canadian Railroads > Trackage at Toronto Union StationDate: 02/16/19 10:44 Trackage at Toronto Union Station Author: gcm From the walkway to CN Tower you get a good view of the intricate trackage at Union Station.
That is S13 8512. Dec 1980 Gary Date: 02/16/19 11:01 Re: Trackage at Toronto Union Station Author: joemvcnj That diagonol track with all those slip switches - good thing they don't have 3rd rail. An 8 car train would gap out.
