Halton County Radial Railway (Rockwood) Museum

A collection of videos I took on Monday September 7th 2009 at the Halton County Radial Railway (aka Rockwood). These videos are not in the same order that I rode on them). I filmed a lot more on the open car than you see in this video, but I have no idea where the rest of the videos went to. But it's about a minute of film from the car as we are going around the loop. The video also includes a ride on a TTC Peter Witt car, and a TTC maintenance PCC which just recently recieved passenger seats. They did originally take vistitors down the line with the maintenance interior, which was not the most comfortable ride IIRC. The London & Port Stanley Railroad car #8 was getting ready to go so I got aboard and took a lot of videos, mostly trying to catch the irregular steam whistle, as opposed to the bell. I took still photos of the Car barn, the streetcars, the bus display and the other train cars which were sitting out front. It truely is a great experience to ride these streetcars/trolleys. I encourage you to take a visit to the museum.

Enjoy

By the way, you will see 2 of the TTC's subway cars out front as well.

Sounds like you got a good catch than. Im guessing you'd be going with the train than if you get in the cab? :P I really badly want to try riding GO out of/in to St. Kitts
