Train display in Humbermouth
Title:  Train display in Humbermouth
Description:  For those that wonder about why the bell is off to oneside the way it is, I'm told by Brendan Dicks, an engineer on these units, 931 was used as the work train loco, and they mounted it that way so it wouldn't be knocked off while lifting rails onto the flatcars.

Title:  Train display in Humbermouth
Description:  Baldwin Pacific 4-6-2, CN#593(nee-Nfld rr#193) was built in Philly in 1921. She operated until 1959, where she retired as a shunter in P.A.B. She survived the cutter's torch and was placed on display at a campground, 17 miles west of here. The Rotary club of Corner Brook, who were the owners, donated the loco to The Railway Society of Nfld. in 1987 where she was shipped up here. A bigger dream than seeing a railway on the island again, would be to see this single survivor breathe steam once more.

Description:  931 is the only NF-210 that still has it's innards. All others in the province are just shells. I'm hoping to maybe getting it running in the near future. Currently, 4 of its' 8 batteries are cracked and I found some water in the oil pan. (I just hope and pray it's not a cracked cylinder!...UGH!)

Description:  I know I'm nuts about our diesels, but this my friends, is the crown jewel herself. Baldwin Pacific 4-6-2, CN#593(nee-Nfld rr#193) was built in Philly in 1921. She operated until 1959, where she retired as a shunter in P.A.B. She survived the cutter's torch and was placed on display at a campground, 17 miles west of here.

Description:  Basically the whole shot of the display at Humbermouth. The main bldg. was actually a freight shed from years back. It's top-notch. The bldg. has been re-named the "Rhoady J. Hickey Building". Rhoady was the main man in charge of the display, who had many years as an engineer on the RR. He was a fine man, and a good friend.
