Video of the former Grand Trunk Pacific Railway-Lake Superior Division, Canadian Government Railways-Fort William Subdivision, Canadian National Railways-Fort William/Lake Superior/Graham/Crest Subdivision at Thunder Bay, ON. This area with a unique layout was known as the "Moose's Nose" or "Devil's Elbow." Features the grade from Alba Station around the tip of the nose and some rock work, crossing Wappner Road to the site of a well preserved concrete culvert dating to 1917.
*Please note that a portion of the right of way lies on private property and permission was obtained to explore the grade.
Part 3 of 8.
Active, 1908-1925.

Good day again sir, and thank you for sharing this historic content of Thunder Bay and area railways. Even as a lifetime resident of Thunder Bay, I just found out from you in a previous video that the word "Neebing" is Ojibway for summer. You definitely learn something new daily, and I'm almost 51 years old, thank you again kindly, keep up the fine work.

You’re welcome. Glad people are finding these informative.

Given the resilience of the culvert shown at TS 12:00 in which a tree of substantial size is growing atop is a testament of the quality of design, construction and proactive maintenance.

They've held together. Not sure what happened to the one that was ripped out on the southern side of the nose. It was there in the 90s and seemed to be okay. There is another one further up the line that you'll see in July. One side of it is in rough shape.
