Ontario Steam Trains | Steam Memories of Ontario

Rail Innovations 1988 VHS Tape

Steam Memories of Ontario, Relive the final years of regular steam power in Canada's second largest province. The superb 16mm colour footage taken by well known Canadian rail photographer W.H.N. Rossiter along the mainlines and branchlines of Canadian National and Canadian Pacific features a wide variety of motive power working both freight and passenger assignments.

Along with the visual memories we've added a most interesting and entertaining narration. It's great listening as five railroaders relate their experiences, both good and bad during the glory days of steam. These men actually worked on and ran many of the locomotives featured, and their tales provide a lively insight into the days when steam was king.
