    Amazing machine. She is so well preserved, it feels like the head beam is turning on and she is steaming ahead.

    What a beautiful place for an evening stroll, a day time walk, a run, or even some biking. Amazing place, being by the water, Detroit Skyline right in front of you. The riverfront has improved so much and it's inviting families form all over to come down in the heart of the Rose City and enjoy the views of the Detroit Rock City

    Love this place... it shows a part of Windsor rail history. Sad to see it all gone, as my family used to work the rail yard. But nice to see the Engine and old boat ramps still in place. I hope the city can help trim the trees around it, to make it more photogenic on the other side...

    Spirit of Windsor Canadian National # 5588 is a locomotion located in downtown Windsor that is well-maintained and informs you about an interesting part of local history.

    Spirit of Windsor train is located at the end of the parking lot, to the right lot when coming down Ourllette. The train is stationed and one of many things to see along the river walk way. The parking lot here is paid to park. The walkway around the 2 parking lots and river walk is one of the better lit areas along the river.
