In this edition of the morning rush hour on the Lakeshore West line, I visited the soccer field at St Christopher's school. This field hosts a great panning view of the trains and is right across the tracks from Birchwood park, and just east of Clarkson Road level crossing, both are spots where I frequently railfan. The only disappointing thing about this spot is the high fence which obstructs some of the views, and the vegetation in the summer is also an obstacle.
In this video, I captured 10 GO Trains, three of them being MP54AC's! The trains were still 6 and 8 cars respectively, as this took place before the schedules returned to somewhat pre covid levels. I hope you enjoy this video, and subscribe for more rush-hour-railfanning videos!!
