Caption: Former Canadian Pacific steam 136, being built in 1914 making it over a century old, is now owned by the South Simcoe Heritage Railway and is seen here charging northbound (going backwards in this photo) towards Beeton, Ontario where it'll head back to Tottenham Station and finish its excursion. This line, was built to connect 4 lakes, Ontario, Simcoe, Georgian Bay, and Huron. Now, all the line is gone except this small portion between Tottenham and Beeton where this heritage railway operates. Due to the heritage railway being non-profit, abilities for advertising are limited and not many tourists know about the railways existence, making it a good opportunity to go and see this steamer in operation.
