70s or early 80s I remember my grandfather and grandmother taking me to
the harbour front flea market and i owuld hang out at the train museum
there and then we would walk by the collection of locomotives on the
way home. i do not remember where they were jsut on the way back tothe
subway sation.
any ideas where and or what happened to them?
During the late 70s - early 80s Ex CPR 136 and 1057 and some cars were
stored behind the liquor store on cooper street. I went downthere to
take a look in 1982, but didn't stop to take a photo as there were a
couple of unsavory characters nearby.
