Hi All,

Port Williams was small by any standard, a double ended passing siding that served three customers and a back track that served a train to truck grain elevator and a team track. On Sunday evenings the double ended siding doubled as a passing track when inferior daily Train 3 met superior Sunday only Train 6.

Southbound Train 3 pulls into the Port Williams siding to wait for Train 6.



The headlights of Train 6 can be seen in the distance.



Train 6 crosses highway 358 as it heads for Halifax.



Train 6 passes Port Williams larges customer, the Atlantic Co-op, as it approaches Train 3.



Trains 6 and 3 meet at the north end of the Port Williams siding.



After Train 6 is clear Train 3 backs out onto the mainline, then heads south again. Port Williams is about a mile west of the highway 358 crossing, there is no station, so passengers are picked up and let off at the crossing.



Paul :-)
