Walter! You are correct, of course. And I will someday take the time to learn how to use Photobucket or some such. But I thought I had selected a photo that had no info on it, so how do you do it? When I select properties on this photo, all I see is
ericscouten.com/images/preview/es-060802.jpg. Where do you get this more detailed data?
Anyway, Wakefield is a picturesqe little town in the Gatineau Hills across the river from Ottawa. These days, the train's passengers are mostly tourists. My father-in-law and his family have long roots in this town. When my fil was a young man, he and his 2 brothers worked in Ottawa and used this train as a commuter. On the way home in the evenings, as the train slowed to a crawl entering town, they would jump off when they got closest to home. The problem was that at exactly the same point, on the other side of the tracks was the town tavern. So it was quite usual that the boys would jump to the left, instead of the right, and have a few pints in the pub. Unfortunately, their father was the town bailiff -- he'd soon be around to drag them home.
Here's another photo I found of the little lake that the town and railroad curls around:
The town also has a bakery that makes the world's best butter tarts.
Go, Walter.
