Railink 1285 (x-CANAC, xx-CN same number)idles on what is left of the old Dunmnville sub (lifted 1985) with a short cut of cars. The renovated CN Caledonia station can be seen on the left. Perhaps the lads have gone for a lunch break, after all they are a hop, skip and jump from a local Timmies. Evidence of a hot and dry mid summer can be seen in the form of some struggling grasses on the RoW. Not easy growing area in the best conditions.

    What a great catch! I always tried to catch them here with no luck and these days it is probably impossible with the lack of any traffic on this stretch of track.

    I always thought it was interesting how offset the station is from the tracks. Wasn’t there a third track on the left at one time?

    Oh yes, more track. It shows on one of my old postcards. I wonder if it is for safety reasons so many stations had tracks realigned outward.
