Скачать или смотреть RIDE ALONG ON SOUTH SIMCOE 70 TONNER

JUNE 29, 2025

We visited the South Simcoe Railway at Tottenham, Ontario

There is aerial footage and the occasional ground take at level crossings and stations.
Much of the footage consists of views from the front of the nose of the SSR’s GE 70 tonner number 703.
I hope that you enjoy this day out ride as much as we did.

If you have not seen this operation first-hand, I feel it is well worth the trip.

Everyone there was exceedingly helpful and friendly. Management and operating crew members were especially kind in permitting me to film for this channel.
I thank them all sincerely for this cooperation. It was very much appreciated.
