Beautiful capture Steve! So delighted you are sharing more of your Newfoundland gems, well done! As you know, at the time of your photo, one could still board from here a G8 hauled mixed train to both the Argentia and Carbonear branchlines on alternate days except for Sunday. Fortunately, this station is preserved and is now home to the Railway Coastal Museum where I volunteer.
