ELGIN OPP WARN TRESPASSERS against walking on or beside the Port Stanley Terminal Rail train tracks and bridge over Kettle Creek, Port Stanley. The tracks are private property & dangerous for trespassers when a train comes along. Trespassers subject to arrest & a fine.
Whitcomb Wednesday! Pictured here is our 50 ton Whitcomb Donald. Named after Don Broadbear, this Whitcomb was built in 1950, and worked at Consolidated Sand & Gravel in Paris, Ontario before arriving at PSTR in the early 80's.
It's a Maintenance of Way Monday! In 2018 ties were replaced between Karen Street and Southdale. Pictured here just north of Karen Street, in between one of many trips to the scrap pile.
Flashback Friday...to Easter 2013. L2 had a train full of eager Easter Egg hunters.
Well...it could be worse. It could be snowing! Here's a photo to cool everyone down. Larry Broadbent photo. Pictured L-R are Bill Turvey, Andrew Poole, Seamus Flynn and Tim Flynn. See Tim, I was at one time taller than Seamus too...
Dave Merkley and Carrie Riddell put finishing touches on scrap cleanup.
Happy Canada Day!
PSTR still stands silent from quarantine. June 23 2020
A reminder that all railway land in Port Stanley is Private Property & is not to be used as a shortcut.
The PSTR Board would like to thank all our supporters & fans for their queries and kudos. After consultation with our volunteers, other tourist railways & similar venues and weighing this against the procedures we would have to put in place, the Board has come to a difficult decision. We have assessed that the risks to our personnel and our passengers are too high to operate the railway at this time.... PSTR hopes to operate this year in some form but as always safety is our primary concern and overriding criteria for restart. We will re assess both the tourist train and the Murder Mystery trains as the Province and the local public health unit restrictions and advice evolve Again, Thank you for your understanding & support.
PSTR volunteers hard at work.
Once in awhile, some sprucing up of maintenance equipment is a necessity. Repainted M1 October 8-9, 2016.
