Caption: NORTHERN EXPOSURE - It was exactly 57 years ago today on June 20, 1967 that John Freyseng of Ontario travelled with four University of Toronto friends - including the late, great, James A. Brown - to celebrate Canada's Centennial by boarding Newfoundland's endangered passenger train 'Caribou' and captured some amazing narrow gauge images. During his 22-hour, 547 mile journey to the provincial capital of St. John's he photographs the unique wooden center cupola caboose on CN Mixed Train No. 203 at Northern, an isolated and lengthy siding enroute to the Gaff Topsails. With the arrival of the last batch of 20 new steel cabooses that year, the old wooden ones would soon all be taken out of service. This wonderful view from the sleeper 'Clarenville' on CN Train No. 102 on one of the longest days of the year, also shows the RPO which carried all mail across the Island. In place on 203 since being transferred from the 'Caribou' on October 5, 1958, the Railway Post Office cars would see their last run just over little than a year later on October 1, 1968. I chose this particular photo to celebrate and acknowledge this wonderful man and dear friend for capturing so many beautiful images of railway operations in 1967 Newfoundland and kindly sharing his work for others to admire. More of his breathtaking images can be seen in my latest, TRAINS OF NEWFOUNDLAND, hard and softcover editions by Flanker Press.
