Railpictures.ca - A.W.Mooney Photo: I have to admit I was surprised there was a station at Yarbo. This little hamlet of 57 people is located SE of Saskatchewan on the main CN River sub line, so sees lots of traffic. Appreciated an eastbound train showing up just as I was going to grab a photo of the old station building. CN 2651 and 2576 hauling what looked like potash. There are numerous mines in the area, which probably accounts for this little station (office) still in existence. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography
