Railpictures.ca - David Brook Photo: The Northlander makes its daily trip towards North Bay on what was the first rail line I ever followed closely. The Newmarket Sub was always fairly quiet; the Ore Train and 470/471 running daily with the Huntsville roadswitcher thrown in. You wonder what have become of it if Toronto’s garbage had been sent to Kirkland Lake as was once planned. There was also the summer of 1990 when a work project on the Bala Sub had CN sending everything northbound up the Newmarket, and then west to Capreol and beyond. It must have been quite a shock for the locals. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
