Harrison, make sure you visit and walk through the railway tunnel; it's an experience like no other. You'll love Brockville, go to Jim's for breakfast, just over the tracks from the VIA station. Enjoy !!
When I still had my car, I would drive from Ottawa to Brockville a few times a month and often come back via Cardinal. At one time in the mid-2010s I saw the GMD1 switching on Ingredion property but I couldn't get any good photos or videos of it because of its location at the time. In August 2022 my buddy and I went down by train and from the time we got off to 35 minutes later, 4 trains went by. Then we went through the tunnel and went to Ribfest! What a day!
As a railfan of Brockville, I must say that this video was very well made! You showcased the famous tunnel, showed the murals at the station, and *_lots_* of trains! Fantastic! I also love that comment at 25:23, my dad and I can't get enough of those. Hahaha
I was in Brockville just over a decade ago and you couldn't get into that tunnel, it was just a plaque at one (that not green) side. Canada is only just recognizing its railway heritage it seems.
@@NorthCountryTrains we have a CN sub that has pretty good action at the West Chicago Diamond. Along with Union Pacific and Metra, it's non stop action
