Date: 01/17/23 22:25 Re: GO 514 Author: feclark The four-car GO train looks bizarre. Is someone familiar with that circumstance? Nice shot, by the way.

Fred Date: 01/18/23 17:53 Re: GO 514 Author: DrawingroomA Week-end GO trains were very short a way back. In the 1970s the standard consist on Saturdays was three coaches - single-level, of course. The Sunday GO trains were two self-propelled coaches. Sunday trips could be horribly crowded.
Now, the trains on the Lakeshore line, as we have seen in members' photos, have 12 coaches with a train every half hour even on week-ends and off-peak weekdays. Date: 01/19/23 11:58 Re: GO 514 Author: newtonville150 August 12th 1988 was a Friday, so weekday off-peak.
