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 !!
I did fully walk through the tunnel and it’s featured in the video!
u mean Jons
Yes, still stuck in Arnprior ! (Jim's)@@chriscarlson-k3j
ITS JONS
i bike over that bridge everyday to get to work. great video
Awesome video! I railfan around this area, I could give a few recommendations if you would like.
Really enjoying your Canada videos. For the last 3 Via trains, you posted in screenshots of their speed. What app or website was that from?

Beautiful video
Looks like you had a great trip up north! I think the switcher is an SW1200RS.
This channel is just amazing . Really just beautiful videos. Something I can't even dream to do or have the chance to experience 😢
A,wonderful and informative video. I enjoyed it! Thank you.
HARRISON NICE VIDEO E271 IS MONTREAL QC-FLINT MI
Smith's Falls which is not too far from Brockville has a little railway museum you might enjoy. I believe you can stay overnight in an old caboose.
I will make it to Smiths Falls sometime soon! Thanks for the info
What was the screen shot you showed at the end with the train time status etc?

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
Thank you! We certainly got great action!
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!
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.
Your description for 532 isn't correct. 532 only goes as far as Morrisburg.
Cornwall Electric railway motor.
Yes, I will show and talk about it more in Part 2!
Excellent Video as Always!
Great Video!
Awesome 😎
That horn on 3254 is sweet not that often ET44’s don’t have K5HL’s
Brockville is so quiet, sometimes i can hear the station announcements in my house more than 1.5 km away
hey matt
OMG MY DAD WENT HERE ON MONDAY
Just subscribed to your channel! Looks like I need to make a road trip up here for some serious CN action!
Thanks! You can’t beat the Kingston Sub for variety!
@@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
Looked like a fun day of railfanning in Ontario. CN freights, VIA F40ph's , hi-rail truck and ice cream. Good video 👍🏻
😅😅
Cool video and enjoyed watching. Have a wonderful rest of your day.(Steve)
Thanks, you as well!
Butter tarts! I get them every time I go to Toronto. Something that is unavailable in Montreal. Great video!!!
We were very disappointed trying to find them further east, especially in Quebec
Great video!
Great video 👍🏻
