    Hey thanks for a great video I have lived in Barrie all my life and and have been chasing trains since I was a young grasshopper your video brings back alot of memories growing up in Barrie our boat was docked at the lakeshore spent most of my time hanging out on the boat Anytime a train was coming through Barrie I could hear trains coming way off in the distance and being at the waters edge most of the time the sound traveled across the water like an early warning radar every chance I got I would dash across the street well a head of a north or south bound train. It's too bad CN Stop running freight north through Barrie. So as I got older and got drivers license I had and still have the MacTier CPR SUB just outside side of town and it makes up for less rail traffic going through Barrie thanks again for such good footage

    Always enjoy hearing the sound of the wheels rolling over jointed rail.

    I'm glad I took several pictures from New Lowel to Stayner before it was all ripped out. What a loss to the region and to history itself.

    Near the end of the video, in Stayner, you commented on the Co-op siding not having seen a train in a while. I believe, later, some time after this video was shot, the siding was revived, was it not? I could be wrong, but I thought the BCRY serviced them after they took over from CN, the Co-op became a rail customer once again.

      Yes, the siding was revived and the Co-op started receiving fertilizer loads in the spring.

    Was the Innisfil and Collingwood routes local routes for 450/1 mainline routes?
    I mean is, was the local routes meant to bring cars to the barrie yard and than 450/1 trains than couple to them and headed either Toronto or north bay like how L595 does in Huntsville?

    Well I can move somewhere else to see trains. Not like i would miss barrie seeing it's becoming one of the most costly cities to live in canada.
