The "Last Train Through the Fort" ceremony was advertised in our local papers for Sept.8th/87. An event I was not going to miss. Here is CN 4005 parked at the Fort station with VIA coach 5474 and CN business car 93. After all the dignitaries and CN officials are boarded, they will head east to the new bridge over the North Sask. river and officially open the new rail by-pass.
