GTP/CN-Graham Subdivision MP 7-10.9 II (Alba Station-Moose’s Nose)

26 Mar

Video of the former Grand Trunk Pacific Railway-Lake Superior Division, Canadian Government Railways-Fort William Subdivision, Canadian National Railways-Fort William/Lake Superior/Graham/Crest Subdivision at Thunder Bay, ON. This area with a unique layout was known as the “Moose’s Nose” or “Devil’s Elbow.” Features the southern end of the nose with a large rock cut and the site of Alba Station, which unfortunately has disappeared as a result of quarrying work in the area. According to Canadian National records, there was no station building at Alba.

*Please note that this portion of the right of way lies on private property and permission was obtained to explore the grade.
