One of Ontario Southland's prized possessions are their F units. Here we see OSR 6508, one of 3 F units they own crossing a lesser travelled dirt road on their way towards Tillsonburg. After just under 4 years of running the former Canada Air Line for CN, with bridge repairs needed along the line and the funds just not there to justify continuing service the once shortcut across Southern Ontario is now just a memory. The train making the return trip back to St. Thomas would be the last time a train has crossed this crossing since.
