Windsor Railyard 1914

Post by Dan Conlin »

Matt has uploaded some details of the Windsor Railyard in 1914 from Ron Haigh's collection: http://www.dardpi.ca/wiki/index.php?tit ... r_Railyard
Thanks Matt!
These are sections of a very large panoramic photo of the yard taken by Windsor photographer Harry Reid. Donnie Foster in the valley has an original - it is a rare view of all kinds of neat DAR lettered rolling stock. Matt were there any other sections of this panorama with Ron? The full thing has more old timer DAR box and flat cars. Does anyone else know where a copy of this panorama resides?

Awesome isn't it? Thanks for adding it into the Windsor Railyard section. I must have had a brain freeze not to think of that myself!!

That was all I saw in Ron's collection. I saw the print in Don's collection, but did not make the connection.

Once the Musq. Museum opens again, I would like to photograph as much as I can from the Warden collection and get that on the DPI. I'm sure I'll find some goodies:-)
