2019 Annual Gathering in Hamilton, Ontario
Our 2019 Annual Gathering was based in Hamilton, Ontario and was hosted by the Toronto Area Group of the 16mil Association during the last full weekend of May 2019. On Thursday early arrivals did some independent railfanning, hobby shop visiting, and touristing before gathering for dinner at a pub. On Friday we were treated to a tour of downtown Toronto by Jeff Young. The day began with a GO train ride into the city where Jeff gave us guided tour of Union Station. Next up was a special group guided tour behind the scenes of the Toronto Rail Museum (formerly the CP roundhouse), then some subway and surface trolley riding. On Saturday and Sunday our steamup activities took place at the Hamilton Museum of Steam and Technology in conjunction with the Golden Horseshoe Live Steamers.
Here are a few photos of our activities:
