Caption: BISHOPS FALLS BROWSING - Continuing eastward with four University of Toronto friends - including the late James A. Brown - to celebrate Canada's Centennial by riding Newfoundland's endangered passenger train 'Caribou', John Freyseng of Ontario was able to capture some amazing narrow gauge images. During its scheduled twenty-minute stop at Bishop's Falls, he photographs NF210 919 leading CN Train No. 102, the eastbound 'Caribou', following a sub-division crew change. With darkness close at hand, the folks aboard the Caribou will soon being bedding down in the sleepers Princeton, Whitbourne, Twillingate and Clarenville after a delightful meal in Diner 173 and entertainment in Diner/Cafe Car 172. Having left Port aux Basque at 10:00 AM, the Caribou was still only at the halfway point of its 547 mile trans-island journey. The significance of this image is that on July 3, 1969, exactly 54 years ago today, the final Caribou pulled into St. John's, the end of an era and a sad day for Newfoundland and Labrador. More of John Freyseng's 1967 photos can be seen in my TRAINS OF NEWFOUNDLAND, released by Flanker Press in both hard and softcover editions.
