CSS Acadia is a former hydrographic surveying and oceanographic research ship of the Hydrographic Survey of Canada and its successor the Canadian Hydrographic Service.
Acadia served Canada for more than five decades from 1913 to 1969, charting the coastline of almost every part of Eastern Canada including pioneering surveys of Hudson Bay. She was also twice commissioned into the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) as HMCS Acadia, the only ship still afloat to have served the RCN in both World Wars. Today she is a museum ship, designated as a National Historic Site of Canada, moored in Halifax Harbour at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic.
Retaining her original engines, boilers and little-changed accommodations, she is one of the best preserved Edwardian ocean steamships in the world and a renowned example of Canada's earliest scientific prowess in the fields of hydrography and oceanography.

CSS&SB Pullman built coach 7 at Randolph Street, Chicago, Illinois on an unknown day in February 1982, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The winter of 1982 was a tough one for the South Shore. New equipment was on order but had not yet arrived. As a result of layed up older rolling stock, the South Shore was forced to borrow bi-level gallery cars and diesels from the RTA.
CSS&SB 39 and 802 at Michigan City, Indiana on an unknown day in May 1979, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 39 was built by the Standard Steel Car Company during 1929 and was equipped with a Pullman-type smoking compartment (a separate room with a passage aisle along one side).
Commuters alight from an eastbound South Shore train consisting of borrowed bi-level equipment from the RTA, including F40PH-2 No. 104. By this date in August 1982, delivery of new South Shore equipment was pending. With the arrival of the new cars over the next year, South Shore returned this equipment to RTA and was able to retire all of the old interurban cars by the summer of 1983.

America's last interurban put on a big-time, heavy duty operation during rush hours and here at Hegewisch, the passengers are loaded and the flagman peers ahead for a highball from the conductor as the big eight-car South Shore train prepares to depart, in August 1982.

CSS&SB Pullman built 103 arriving at the Randolph Street Station, Chicago, Illinois, March 1980, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I worked in an office building in downtown Chicago during this time frame, and during my lunch hour, I often took South Shore photos, particularly if the company camera was loaded with film (I was their audio-visual guy).
