Day 1, Day 2 , Day 3, Day 4, Day 5
We took the ONR Northlander from Cochrane to Toronto. This was more of a relaxing day, but we were met by News media in North Bay for a quick interview. Some of our friends in the ONR union were also in North Bay to say hello. We also had a couple of friends, Steve Marshall and Marion Linton, board the train at South River with an mandolin and fiddle and they entertained us all the way down to Huntsville.
Something we noticed all the way down on the Northlander was that the historic train stations were all well kept and very picturesque. As soon as we get time we will put some pictures of them on the website. We were sidetracked by freight trains a couple of time so we ended up about an hour late into Toronto's Union Station. For anyone who has not seen Union Station it is a must see. It is a really beautiful building and you can just feel the history in the Grand Hall. We checked out where we were going to do our press conference at Union Station and then we checked into our hotel to rest for Wednesday.
