Canadian Railroads > Canada Crushed Stone 7Date: 02/22/19 22:42 Canada Crushed Stone 7 Author: refarkas Canada Crushed Stone 7 is in Dundas, Ontario on July 3, 1981. By then there were no other traces of the railroad that used to serve the plant.
Bob Date: 02/22/19 23:24 Re: Canada Crushed Stone 7 Author: krm152 Great Find! You really had to get off the beaten path to get that one.
Thanks for posting your photo. ALLEN Date: 02/23/19 02:31 Re: Canada Crushed Stone 7 Author: hoggerdoug Not wanting to hijack Bob's posting, here is a link to more about Canada Cut & Crushed Stone. I lived in the area and being younger at the time, never really thought about taking any pictures of the railway, figuring it'll "be there forever". Oddly enough there were some well informed railfans living in the area that were not arware of the railway unitl I mentioned it to them. Very obscure and unique operation.
Couple of my images, taken January, 1971 on Harvest Road in Greensville, ON. My Kodak Instamatic not quite up to the task. https://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?15,3906412,3910562#msg-3910562 Doug Date: 02/23/19 06:23 Re: Canada Crushed Stone 7 Author: refarkas Your Instamatic did a good job for an Instamatic. Remember a railfan photo is often better than a thousand words in explanation or telling about memories.
