Great timing on this shot.It portrays the image of empty cars crossing the country...which may be closer to the truth.I remember a train trip from Edmonton-Toronto when I was a lad of 14.The trains were still the elite way to travel,silver service.We had a bedroom with private bath....it is still a wonderful memory...culminating with a front row box seat for a Stanley Cup Final game-Toronto-Montreal.What a thrill.Eddie Shack took a poke at Maurice"Rocket" Richard not 5 feet from me.
Oh ya...I forgot...I was supposed to comment on the photo....great photo....lol.
