CNoR/CN-Kinghorn (Dorion) Subdivision MP 25.7-29.6 I (Warneford/Beardmore Pit)

03 Feb

Video of the former Canadian Northern Railway/CN-Kinghorn (Dorion) Subdivision (MP 75.4-79.3) south of Beardmore, ON. Features the grade as it parallels the Blackwater River just west of Warneford Station with rock cuts, telegraph poles, signage and the remains of a 2500-foot spur through a ballast pit, including part of the rock crusher. Rock from this pit was used on numerous projects, including the 1982 re-ballasting of the line and the creation of the embankment seen in this video: https://youtu.be/_dlhjNiHnZk

Part 1 of 5.

Active, 1914-2005.
