End Of The Line RLHH 3049 shoves back into the Ingenia Polymer Plant in Brantford. In the foreground is the track bumper to mark the end of the Burford Spur. A short walk down the rail trail walking path allowed for me to take this shot.

    I’m a little confused Joseph. I thought the Burford Spur was the remains of the CN Burford Sub that went to Tillsonburg?

    @RonaldB I believe this is the TH&B spur that is now a part of the old Burford Sub/Spur

    So they sort of lumped together the remaining industrial trackage under one name, makes sense. Decades ago when I was working the Woodstock/Port Burwell Job on CP, we used to see the CN train from Brantford most days. He’d run all the way down to the Cayuga Sub. leave some cars & pick up others and return to Brantford. Things sure have changed.
