That’s an interesting photo. Trying to picture a wide river crossing like that in Ontario. I’m guessing it’s possibly a long removed bridge like the CASO crossing in Amherstburg or maybe a bridge that once crossed the St. Lawrence River somewhere.
The CASO bridge was never completed. In 1884 the Michigan Central added that curve in Essex to head into Windsor, and the tunnel opened in 1910 (complete with electric locomotives).
I was wondering about the CNoR bridge between Hawkesbury, Ontario and Grenville, Quebec, but the height of the riverbank behind the train doesn’t make sense.
I don’t think this is in Ontario. I suspect this is somewhere in the prairies, where the river valleys often cut down into the plains like this. There are a lot of wide river crossings there that this could be.
Ok, thanks for the feedback! I am really not sure where this was, but Ontario was just a bit of a guess. I had to put some location down in the upload dropdown anyways.
That’s the bridge at Borden Saskatchewan
Ok, thanks! That seems likely enough!
