    UPPER CANADA RAILWAY SOCIETY BOX 122 STATION "A" TORONTO, ONTARIO Photo On Oct. 15, 1989, CPR's yard trackage in Goderlch, Ont. was almost completely dismantled, this being the western terminus of the 80- mile Goderlch Sub. from Guelph. This view, looking west toward Lake Huron, shows the station (which, hopefully, will survive) and the engine shed, right. ^^^^^ Western visitor: two of these Edmonton Transit trolley coaches are in Toronto for tests. The bodies were built by General Motors and the motors and controls by Brown Boveri; the 100-unit order commenced service in the Alberta capital eight years ago. This view of 178 was taken in Edmonton on July 13, 1983. _Dave Chalmers Survivor: 60 years young and still apparently going strong in CPR Engineering Dept. service was former ore car 376784, photographed on a siding beside the railway's West Toronto Shop, Nov. 4, 1989. It was built by Canadian Car & Foundry to the designs of the Hart- Otis Car Co.; the 25-foot car was designed to hold 80 tons of nickel ore. The railway ordered several hundred such cars in the 1920s. __john D.

  • Lake and River Port Facilities 6.6.1
    CHAPTER 6 6.6 LAKE AND RIVER PORT FACILITIES 6.6.1. INTRODUCTION Water ports, by nature, are inter‐modal. People and freight traveling by water must arrive and depart by another transportation mode. Inter‐modal connectors are roads that provide access to water ports or rail services. Truck and other vehicular congestion on or near the inter‐modal connections affect ports that rely on trucks for commodity transfer. Improvements to roadways that connect to ports increase the efficiency of ports, benefit trade, and contribute to employment growth and regional productivity. With statistics such as fourth, ⅓, 58.8 million and 5.7 billion – as in: • Fourth in the nation for total water tonnage moved • The Ohio River System accounting for ⅓ of all annual U.S. inland waterborne commerce by tonnage • The Lake Erie System annually accommodates 58.8 million tons of commodities moving to, from and within Ohio • $5.7 billion in the annual value of Ohio port shipments on Lake Erie In 2001, more than 58,800,000 tons of commodities moved to, from, and within Ohio on the Great Lakes; this was a 7% decline from 63.3 million tons from 1995. The annual value of Ohio port shipments on Lake Erie equals $5,700,000,000. Coal accounts for 22,000,000 tons (39%) of the state’s total traffic‐iron ore, and represents 13,200,000 tons (22%) of the State’s total Great Lake tonnage. There are no water ports located in either Mahoning or Trumbull Counties. However, the two Ports of Ashtabula and Conneaut are located on Lake Erie north of the Eastgate planning area in northern Ashtabula County.
