When VIA launched its Light Rapid Comfortable (LRC) train in August 1981, a demonstrator set made the rounds of Corridor cities. On August 12-13, the set visited Kingston's Outer Station. While up to this point I was more interested in the train itself, in looking at these pictures again, I'm drawn to the context. My Dad hikes over for a head-end view (top photo). Check out the OCS boxcar parked at the piggyback ramp, with power pole and Montreal Street houses, beyond. All of which I plan to model. Here's a general view of the now-quiet station and yard area (below):
