How many people got on/off at the stations en-route?
That summer followed / photographed Carbonear mixed trains 231 – 232 and Bonavista mixed 205 – 206: most passengers were families taking children for an afternoon train ride. Most boardings seemed near the terminal station: turnaround time at Carbonear was 20 minutes and at Bonavista 30 minutes. In this photo about eight passengers on the platform and perhaps double that on the train.
