Video of the former Canadian Northern Railway/CN-Kinghorn (Dorion) Subdivision (MP 71.8-75.4) south of Beardmore, ON. Features the grade as it parallels the Blackwater River at Warneford Station with the start of the siding, a flanger sign and the realigned grade. This realignment was a result of a 1946 diversion which saw a 0.5 mile section of line shifted from the north bank of the river to the south bank and two trestles removed. The video is highlighted by drone flyover which follows the river from east of the first trestle to past Warneford Siding. The old grade is subtle, but if one looks carefully, you’ll see a line of poplar trees following the curve of the river.

Video of the former Canadian Northern Railway/CN-Kinghorn (Dorion) Subdivision (MP 71.8-75.4) south of Beardmore, ON. Features the original section of grade and the remains of two 348-foot trestles between Mileposts 24.9 and 25.2. This 0.5 mile section was abandoned and the grade rerouted south of the river in 1946 at the request of the Brompton Pulp and Paper company. *Be sure to watch Episode IV first which explains why the realignment was done: https://youtu.be/odbV6r7QgiM **Be sure to watch this segment of the episode where you will see the realignment from the air via drone: https://youtu.be/-NalpgEiUw4 ***Apologies for the muffled audio starting at 2:53. I put my GoPro in its waterproof case to protect it from damage, forgetting that it covers up the speakers on the camera. I did my best the raise the audio levels in editing, but it obviously sounds distorted. Many thanks to Jeffrey Smith who provided the information to locate this forgotten section of grade.
