Good shots. I like the one with the rusted off numbers especially. Good eye on that one.

That CP Mini-box was at Hantsport for years, I take it it's now in Windsor. It should be at a museum.

Paul,

The minibox is at Hantsport, along with three other boxcars. A speeder is stored in one of them.

Railway preservation in this province is almost non existent. What we need is a wealthy philanthropist who loves trains.

Fine evocative shots. Rust Never Sleeps! Where is the section house located?

Hi Dan,

Section house is at South Maitland. Andrew Blackburn said it was hauled away around the time of abandonment, then returned years later.
