The GHRA has an extensive photo collection of Guelph, and surrounding areas, in an effort to showcase Guelph history, we have created this photograph library to showcase some of our collection.
Below are albums of historical photos, modern photos taken by our group members, as well as past GHRA events.

Northbound OSR
OSR 182 leads a train northbound toward Guelph, passing 'Danger Bell' crossing. The Crossing was given that name due to the limited sight lines, as a warning to crew to use their bell when approaching the crossing. July 15, 2020. Drew Goff Photo.
