A nice overview of the GO Yard in Mimico. 2001
In 2001 GO Transit borrowed (leased) equipment from Miami area's Florida Tri-Rail and Vancouver's West Coast Express. A train of this leased equipment was photographed the week after "9-11" heading north along the west bank of the lower Don River. Vantage point was Eastern Avenue bridge. It had departed Union Station eastward a few minutes earlier and would make station stops terminating at Richmond Hill. Florida Tri-Rail was equipped with bi-level coaches in the same colour scheme as GO Transit except for Tri-Rail emblems. Potentially this made it easier to sell the coaches (to GO) if the South Florida commuter train service was not viable. However Tri-Rail's 480 Volt HEP (matching Amtrak, VIA, etc) is incompatible with GO's 575 Volt system.

Part of the doubletracking project along the I-95 corridor in South Florida included this impressive bridge south of the Fort Lauderdale station which, as you can see, clings to the same design as I-95 itself. 4/5/2008
Tri-Rail Station (Metrorail Transfer Station) by gg1electrice60 Via Flickr: I took this photo on September 28 2008, during the Florida East Coast Railway Convention in Miami. I was standing on the Miami Metrorail Transfer Station Platform over the Tri-Rail Tracks below. The Northbound Tri-Rail Platform is below on the right side and the Tri-Rail Southbound Platform is below on the to the left of the Tri-Rail Train. Tri-Rail Locomotive Number 808, is a Rebuilt Electromotive Division (EMD) F40PH. It was rebuilt by Morrison Knudson as an F40PH-2C for Tri-Rail. East Hialeah, FL
