Railpictures.ca - Marcus W Stevens Photo: A shot that I’ve made many times is the one along the old Burford spur between the houses on Port Street. It is hard to believe this track once belonged to the TH&B. Now a spur that survives to serve a lone industry once a week. Ownership over the years has gone from TH&B to CP to CN to Railink then back to CN and now the SOR. These days the brakeman must flag all unsigned crossings. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

CN and SOR both run the line jointly

CN has nothing to do with the Burford Spur now. They sold it to Ingenia back in the winter of 2014. Ingenia took control January 2015 with the SOR contracted to run it. Nothing joint here.
