Now lets head west to the other side of Newfoundland on the 548 miles of narrow-gauge track the
CARIBOU passenger train travelled to Port-aux-Basques where you caught a ferry to Nova Scotia.
In 1976 (below) the train had been replaced by
ROADCRUISER buses that still stopped at the CN Stations.
Today....that station still stands but is completely renovated with steel & glass cladding over the old brick and an atrium has been added to the front.
It's now the
MARINE ATLANTIC Ferry Terminal...and buses still stop along the back where the old train platform once was.
