Hi Guys,
Been a while since I checked in, so glad to see most of those cars going to new
homes, especially the London interurban. I too have dined in that restaurant.
The down side is, the only evidence of rail now left in Orillia is the old CN
depot (and a lovely building it is too). Just wish those ski trails heading
south could reverberate to the sounds of locos again.

Hello Dave,
Jeremy told me that the express reefer is going to Port.
Apparently, it is to be used as a refrigerator car again. The units inside
are in good shape for the museum's restaurant.
Now, does anyone know the weight in tons of a heavyweight passenger car?

There are two baggage cars and a CN express reefer. Hopefully it is the
modern CN one to be scrapped rather than the older CPR one.

Very sure that it is the baggage and box car that are being scrapped.
Interurban car is going to Rockwood Halton County Radial Railway and
Nova Scotia car is going to Toronto Railway Museum.
