"JUST GOT IN FROM WAY UP NORTH". The lyrics to Blue Rodeo's 'Bad Timing' came immediately to mind at Emeril Junction on October 16, 2014. As seen from the cab of QNS&L 516, Tshiuten Rail GP38-2W No.701 takes the southbound passenger train to the siding at Emeril while en route to Sept-Iles from Schefferville. Created in December 2005 in an agreement with QNS&L and the First Nations, Tshiuetin Rail Transportation Inc. (TSH) is a shortline that stretches 134 miles (217 kilometres) through the wilderness of western Labrador and northeastern Quebec, It connects Emeril Junction Labrador with Schefferville, QC on the interprovincial boundary. Immediately behind the lead unit is Engine 702 trailing several pieces of ex-Amtrak passenger equipment on one of the most northerly lines anywhere on the continent.
