Canadian Railroads > Super Continental in Melville,SkDate: 09/20/20 08:09 Super Continental in Melville,Sk Author: gcm Dec 80
Melville is a small town on the CN but it had a large station as the eastbound SC makes its stop. This is about 250 miles west of Winnipeg in Saskatchewan.

That wooden boxcar in the last photo is a great catch.

The Watrous sub (west), the Rivers sub (east), the Quappelle sub (south west) and the Yorkton sub (north) all meet here. Photo 1: VIACN Extra 6112 from Regina at the stucco covered Melville station.
