It seems that VIA likes to park their units on this little sidetrack, which is nice, because it gives a very good photo op! |

This bridge used to carry coal in and out of the Atlas Coal mine. The wooden planks were put on the tracks so that mine workers living across the bridge could get across. |

Switch at the Atlas Coal mine |
Description: |
The Atlas coal mine used a very narrow guage, presumably 2 guage. The rail here dates back to the late 1800s. The rest of the track has mostly been torn up, except for a small stretch used for short mine-cart rides. |

This unit was retired in 1999, but obviously it hasnt been scrapped like a lot of its relatives. I think CN wanted to use this unit as a leaser at some point, but im not sure. |
