Description by Paul Enebach:

Bridgetown, Nova Scotia, 26 May'77 All I know is this is another one of the depots still standing without a train order signal between Digby and Kentville. According to my notes (which didn't include station names!) I was riding with the engineer of the RDC "Dayliner" on Dominion Atlantic's #2, and we talked railroading as he also pointed out the scenic and historical points of interest. It looks like there was a passenger getting ready to board this run that started in Yarmouth and ended in Halifax. We did not have many customers besides myself. The track appeared to be light duty, but my 4/77 employees' timetable showed a maximum allowable speed of 50mph for "RDC units" and 35 for freight. [1]
