Between Caledonia and Fort Erie, not much remains intact of the former CN Dunnville subdivision. A small section remains on either side of the Welland canal in Port Colborne with the west side operated as needed by GIO Rail. This track survives today simply to serve the port as well as a tank car storage yard at the very west end of town. Long gone are the days of through trains here. GIO Rails slug set is interesting as mother unit 7224 is in GIO paint while the slug is painted for Locomotive rebuilder LDS, both are former CN, with the slug built from a retired S-3, and can only be connected to the mother unit from one end. The set is seen leaving the tank storage yard with a lone car as the head back towards the north end of town to work more industries. The switch in the foreground heads down to the harbor.
