Don Leger’s freelanced branch line has been serving Eastern Ontario and parts of Western Quebec since the early 90’s. When CN and CP left the area, the S & N took over carrying tons of freight to clients on both sides of the Ottawa River . Major commodities carried by the Railroad include newsprint, MDF, linerboard, forest products, pulp, gas, lumber & board, wire rod, billets & scrap. When CP abandoned Walkley yards in 1989, The S & N took over, and it’s never been busier.

Former Ottawa Central RR units are now working in the United States
Through a mutual friend in Ottawa, and another Buddy who lives in Colorado, We've learned that several former Ottawa Central RR RS-18's are now at work in the State of Mississippi.
Hi Don. Nice blog and it is nice to see those OC Units. Hope you are better soon.
