Barrie Collingwood Railway - Equipment and Track

Equipment and Track

Currently, the BCRY has only one locomotive, an EMD GP9, #1001, which was formerly Ohio Central (OHCR) #94 and Baltimore and Ohio (B&O) #6594. Another GP9, #1000, was in service as well, but has since been transferred to the Orangeville-Brampton Railway (OBRY), another shortline operated by Cando. BCRY also possesses various MOW equipment and a road railer.

The track is over a century old and thus, is in very poor condition. Due to this fact, the speed limit along the line is 10 miles per hour (16 km/h).

Famous quotes containing the words equipment and/or track:

    At the heart of the educational process lies the child. No advances in policy, no acquisition of new equipment have their desired effect unless they are in harmony with the child, unless they are fundamentally acceptable to him.
    —Central Advisory Council for Education. Children and Their Primary Schools (Plowden Report)

    Our achievements speak for themselves. What we have to keep track of are our failures, discouragements, and doubts. We tend to forget the past difficulties, the many false starts, and the painful groping. We see our past achievements as the end result of a clean forward thrust, and our present difficulties as signs of decline and decay.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
