Description |
The Du R�el au Miniature Railroad Interpretation Centre will present a museum piece that was recovered five years ago from the Saint John River at Grand Falls, where the section of the Canadian Pacific locomotive No. 508 had remained since June 21, 1900, after the locomotive and its coal car fell into the river when the bridge it was travelling on collapsed under its weight. |
