Another trip from the past - Steam Power in Ontario on July 19, 1959

Another trip from the Rochester Chapter's past.  This time a trip behind Canadian steam on the Canadian Pacific Railway, Toronto-Hamilton & Buffalo Ry. and the New York Central on Sunday, July 19, 1959.   Motivepower...  Two CPR D-10 class 4-6-0 steam engines dating from between 1908&1913 pulling 14-16 cars.  The trip departed Ft. Erie, but bus service was available from Buffalo, Rochester & Jamestown.   Cost for the trip only: $7.50.   Cost from Rochester: $9.75.   As we have asked with other trips, we would welcome any recollections, photographs or other information about this trip from the Rochester Chapter's past.    Please contact us if you have anything to share.
