SAMPLE TRAIN ORDERS

ALGOMA CENTRAL RAILWAY

One day in 1974, I rode the popular tour train to Agawa Canyon, accessible only via the railroad from Sault Ste. Marie. I rode the regular scheduled passenger train, where the northbound train would drop the tour cars off at Canyon, and the southbound train would pick up the cars. Because of the tour's popularity, an extra train operated from Sault Ste. Marie.


Train order issued at Steelton Yard (Sault Ste. Marie), creating the northbound extra train.
