Indicating that Ottawa may have something to say about this. 2000 workers were also laid off as they would have nothing to do if the trains aren't running. Hopefully this can all soon be resolved. The lady i...

The Mighty Diesel Whine. Model and Prototype Railroading - Atlantic Canada Style. Friday, 20 July 2012. Turning a Passenger Train. On May 13, 2012 the first passenger train in over a year reached New Carlisle. I was there on the following Saturday. Hard to believe. but in all my trips to the Gaspe I had never seen a train turn on the wye before so I was happy to finally do so. I didn't realize it at the time, but this meant seeing a lone F40PH running without any coaches. The neatest part, in my opinion,...

Looking towards the station as if you were standing along the Restigouche River. And Zigg...

The Mighty Diesel Whine. Model and Prototype Railroading - Atlantic Canada Style. Sunday, 11 November 2012. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:. Age shall not weary them, nor the years contemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning. We will remember them. The above verse from.
