Canadian Railroads > The Last TOFC

The Last TOFC
Author: Blackfoot

With an eastbound departure from Toronto in the late evenings, the Expressway wasn't exactly conductive to good photography.  No matter how careful you picked your spot, you were always looking into the setting sun.  If it wasn't for the fact that this was the last dedicated TOFC train in Canada, I probably would have ignored it.  Looking back I'm glad I didn't, because like so many other things we sometimes take for granted, it's now just a memory...

The eastbound Expressway near Davenport Rd, Toronto,  8:18pm, June 3rd, 2016.

Cheers & Keep Safe,

Nice video thanks for posting, only saw it here in Detroit a handfull of times.

I thought it was a great concept I wonder if different departure times or even
locations would have made it more fesiable a concept.

Just a guess, but could be because there are no more, at least not that I know of...

Cheers,

CP simply decided not to operate the Expressway trains 132/133 after June 1st, 2018, and that was that.
