Below the escarpment at Dundas, and below where the Canada Crushed Stone operated, there was below the CN mainline an outfit called Dolomite Refractories Ltd, which operated until 1977 and was taken over by Steetley. The land is now occupied by a moderately upscale housing development. Here is an image of the switcher at work, as seen from the former CCSL conveyor overhang. For details of this operation see http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=25212
