Engine 1531 is about to be lifted and placed on a flatbed trailer for its journey to the Simcoe County Museum. The engine and Caboose 79374 were relocated to allow the City of Barrie to replace a watermain and relocate Lakeshore Drive on to the former Newmarket Sub right of way.The rails of the Newmarket Sub between Barrie and Rama were lifted in the fall of 1996. The new road should be done in 2016.
