CN yards in London Ontario during the 1980’s

    Photos by Jim Booth

    All of these pictures were taken at the CN yards in London Ont. during the 1980’s At that time one could sign a release at the old CN black tower and off you went to the yards. All they said at the time was be aware of your surroundings, take pictures only and keep off the equipment.
    Some of the locomotives were in good condition and others picked clean. All are now scrapped. I believe they were sent to Hamilton to be cut up.
