Comments on: It looks like Pembroke had quite a snowstorm! The crews are out in force and I’m guessing that it won’t be long before the tracks are clear again. The late Del Rosamond captured this photograph at the Pembroke CPR stone station, circa 1959. For many years I’ve studied this image. The focus is very soft – almost like a Wentworth Folkins water-colour painting. You’ll notice that the faces of the men shoveling the snow have no definition… kind of ghostly in an intriguing way.

And the poor ol’ guys look like they are equipped with CP ‘modern’ wooden-handled coal shovels.!!!! Timeless classic!!!
