Catching the Train

Good morning everyone. I am posting my picture today rather early. Day one of my holiday will be a busy but fun filled one as we are having a special celebration and lunch at the Hotel MacDonald downtown.
This is a picture I have been planning on taking for sometime and I finally stopped long enough to get it. The Dover Hotel is located in the Calder neighbourhood and it is across the the street from the CN Railroad Yards. This explains the train mural on the building as for years it has been a place where a lot of the workers would hang out after a long days work. Well time to go and get ready for a fun filled day

I love the irony that it's a picture of a train and the betting shop is 'off-track betting'! Great find, enjoy your holiday - Lucy
