The Last Clipper

The OSR Tillsonburg Job (aka Cayuga Clipper) works Future Transfer for the last time on the Cayuga Subdivision. Of interest, on the right is a now defunct approach signal for the diamond between the Cayuga Sub and CP's Port Burwell Spur (also leased to OSR now). The diamond was removed long ago, but the signals remain turned. Future Transfer moved all of their operations to a different location in Tillsonburg that is accessed from the Port Burwell Spur. This is one of the many reasons why the Cayuga Subdivision is now defunct. It's hard to believe that 50 years ago CN and Wabash/N&W cab units plied these same rails. For more info on the Cayuga Sub and OSR's operations read the description on this photo www.flickr.com/photos/130272127@N07/50379142968/in/datepo...
