Located on the west side of the harbour, the former CNR station at Owen Sound was constructed in 1931 by Canadian National Railway replacing the original Grand Trunk Railway station built in 1894. The building currently houses the Owen Sound Visitor Centre and the Community Waterfront Heritage Centre (CWHC) which includes the Marine and Rail Waterfront Museum. Lots of railway memorabilia and a model railway on display. The former station is well maintained.

Having crossed over at CN Boyne/CP Reynolds, it sounds like the throttle is pulled all the way back and CN 107 is getting up to speed as it crosses the trestle over Parry Sound Harbour heading northward on the CP Parry Sound Sub. portion of the Directional Running Zone (DRZ).

What would have been the trackside of the former CNR Wiarton station. The station was built by the Grand Trunk Railway in 1904 as a "proper station" to replace the original depot opened in 1882. The station is located in Bluewater Park on the shore of Colpoy's Bay and houses the Wiarton Information Centre, there are many railway artifacts inside. The last passenger train departed the station in October 1957 and the station closed in 1961. The station was moved from its original location at the corner of Claude St. and George St. (44.742041, -81.138972) in 1971. The pavilion was added in 2004. A well restored and maintained structure.

Bioveld 1305 is tied down inside the gate of the former Resolute Forest Products/Ontario Paper Company facility and what is now part of the Thorold Multimodal Hub in Allanburg. A piece of track machinery has taken over the 1305's normal parking spot, which is great as it makes 1305 easier viewing from Niagara Falls Road. Some new ties have been installed under the rails outside the gate house, and bundles of ties are spread out toward Hayes Road, the crossing signals need some rehabilitation also. Hopefully we'll see some rail action soon. I would sure like to see what is behind those plywood doors?

Trillium Railway 108 (maybe GIO now?) in stealth black sits tied down just inside the gate at the former Martech facility on Rusholme Road in Welland. The former Martech Industries building has been leveled and not much remains on the property except a few excavators cleaning up what remains and out of sight to the left IC1504, IC 1506, CN 4100 and Stelco 615 sit coupled, lined up along the fence wondering will they be next?

Not much happening at Montague station today, other than the rail rusting. The station was located at the end of the Montague Sub., opening on Dominion Day, July 1 1906. The station was purchased by the Town of Montague in 1984. The renovated station continues to be a landmark in Montague today.

Built in 1904 and almost 70 years after bringing up the rear of CNR Mixed 264 riding the rails through Algonquin Park, the prestige days are done as former CNR 77190 (ex -GTR 90066) sits in deteriorating condition on its own wheels in a field off Tutela Heights Road, Brantford, Ont.. After many miles on the rails the caboose may have served well as a bunkie or other accommodation over the post railway years at this location, but those days are sadly gone now too. (Equipment number confirmed in TSG) See the prestige days in Juilian Bernard posting, photo taken 70 years ago: <a href=http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=23376 target=_blank> http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=23376</a>

Today lesson is “How not to apply identification markings on a locomotive”. Sitting in Brantford Yard, CN 4906 with freehand identification markings is coupled to the more appropriately identified GTW 6425. Time to take away the crayons and order some pre-cut vinyl CN and number 4-9-0-6 decals.

On February 13th, 2009 M304 derailed 2 locomotives and 29 cars near the east siding switch Robinson. There was extensive track and signal damage. The Work Train with IC1012, CN5672 moves ahead at walking speed repositioning to the west end of the derailment site over freshly ballasted track panels, the surfacing machines will now move in to do their part in making the track passable again. (Lat./Long. Co-ordinates approximate)

The former Canadian National Railways station in Armstrong, built in 1932. This structure is no longer standing. This was my first trip to Armstrong as a railroad employee, I was waiting to catch an eastbound and detrain at Ferland to join a Turnout Replacement Gang. In the yard, a work train with ballast cars, most likely full of slag, preparing to go to work, maybe to the Allanwater Sub.. To the left and mostly out of sight is the Maintenance of Way "Special" having arrived a day or so before.

The well maintained Gravenhurst station looks ready to received passengers, all it needs is that talked about passenger train, and some weed cutting on the platform.

The paint has faded making the South River station look a bit tired. With talk about possible Ontario Northland passenger train service being restored, there may be hope for better days.

The Island Queen is navigating the South Channel between Rose Point and Parry Island and has just passed the former Canadian National Railways swing bridge at Mile 4.9 Depot Harbor Subdivision. The bridge commonly known as the "Rose Point Swing Bridge" was built by the Ottawa, Arnpior and Parry Sound Railway in 1912, the bridge no longer carries rail traffic. Known officially as the Wasauksing Swing Bridge the bridge is owned by the Canadian Government and provides the only road access to Parry Island. Studies to replace the present structure have been underway for several years.

Just over ten years after a posting by Joseph Bishop http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=4677
Timiskaming and Northern Ontario 503 sits alone in the morning sun in North Bay, weeds growing through the track panel supporting her weight, while a former Northlander TEE-train Control Cab hides behind a tree in the background. Both wondering what the future holds for them.
