In the picture at the above left, we find our CLC Whitcomb Locomotive #1, awakening on the turntable at sunrise with the moon looking down as preparations begin for another milestone event at Roundhouse Park.

As mentioned in earlier TRHA News postings, Derek Boles, TRHA’s historian, publishes a daily posting on the Toronto Railway Heritage Yahoo Group List. These postings document major events in Canadian history that happened on that day of the year. Last Friday’s posting documented an “instant historical item” item as follows:
.
“Friday, October 30th, 2009
.
The Toronto Railway Heritage Centre (TRHC) operates its first legitimate freight train (as opposed to just moving equipment around) when Steam Whistle Brewing took delivery of a new canning machine. The machine was loaded onto a custom rail car (see picture – middle above) at the end of track 33 under the coaling tower and moved to the turntable and then to stall 8 of the roundhouse using TRHC #1. The rail move was necessary since the new patio paving stones surrounding the turntable precluded a truck move from Bremner Boulevard.”
