Video of the former Canadian Northern Railway/CN-Kinghorn (Dorion) Subdivision (MP 60.4-64.6) east of Beardmore, ON. Features the grade at Jackpine Station with the remains of the siding, which still has many of its ties still in place, as well an unknown structure, possibly a section house.
Part 4 of 5.
Active, 1914-2005.
Third part of three videos featuring High Track, the old Canadian Northern grade between Stanley Junction and Kakabeka Falls. This 3.7-mile section along the Kaministiquia River was once part of the mainline from Port Arthur (Thunder Bay) to Winnipeg that was built from 1899 to 1902 (modern CN-Kashabowie Sub). Because of grade issues, it was abandoned in 1911 when the line was re-routed.
This part of High Track, located midway between the two stations, features several washed out embankments and a spot with ties still in their place.
