Engine 49

I grew up in a small railroad town in Northern Ontario and have many fond memories of trains. Our house was just across the street from the railroad station. My step grandfather " petit Nan" was a night watchman for the lumber mill which used the railroad to ship their lumber. The lumber and planer mill were located near the main CPR line in Cache Bay Ontario.
I used to accompany him on his rounds and remember him setting his watch by his favourite steam engine "Old Engine 49" ...was always on time.

This memory has found it's way into song!
