Title:  "Look Away/Sad Days/Across This Mighty Land"
Description:  There she be, the last pure Canadian Pacific Railway freight train I will have ever photographed. This baby was arriving at the east end of Humboldt Yard on a gloriously warm and sunny Thursday afternoon, bringing Gordon Lightfoot's "The Canadian Railroad Trilogy" to my mind.

"From The Eastern Shore/To The Western Strand"
Title:  "From The Eastern Shore/To The Western Strand"
Description:  As the last pure Canadian Pacific train I will ever photograph began to roll into the maze of tracks at Humboldt Yard on an unseasonably glorious April Thursday afternoon, I was singing Gordon Lightfoot's "The Canadian Railroad Trilogy" out loud. Hail and farewell, Canadian Pacific. We will always remember you.
