Emerging from the Canyon under spectacular autumn skies, a trio of EMD F40PHR locomotives hustle Watco's sold-out Agawa Canyon Tour Train over the Mile 112 trestle on the "new ACR". In February 2022, Watco purchased the old Algoma Central line from Canadian National, tastefully naming it the Agawa Canyon Railroad and resuming tour train operations for the world to enjoy. On this day, 846 passengers from around the globe were able to take in the autumnal splendour of Agawa Canyon; the crown jewel of Algoma Country.
