How the mighty fell.... CN and CP purchased the once magnificent Canada Southern from Conrail in the late 80's, and ran what was once a class 1 "freeway" for goods moving from New York to Chicago into literally a pile of rubble.  In Comber, Ontario the only thing left of the once mighty Canada Southern is their former depot.  I'm glad it's being preserved by the SOLRS group, but it may just fade away as nature takes the CASO back completely.
