This area of Traingeek.ca is dedicated to the memory of David Othen, a well-known railfan photographer who passed away in 2016. With the permission of his widow Pat, I have preserved photos and information from David’s web site here for everyone’s enjoyment and reference.
All photos are copyright by Pat Othen and are used here with permission.
