Craig and and his long time friend Chuck Bard created this video in 2002, documenting a day on the On3 Algoma River Railroad in Craig's basement. With a Northern Ontario theme and set in the 1920s, the narrow gauge line served mining and tourism in the area, connecting Lake Nameigos with the standard gauge connection to the outside world at Algoma City. Full of atmosphere with added sound effects and piano by Chuck Bard, it conjures a place where we'd all like to spend time watching the trains and enjoying the summer weather.
The railway was dismantled in late 2020, having been an inspiration to many in its detail, full operations scheduling, and evocative story.
Articles on the line appeared in The Narrow Gauge and Short Line Gazette for Jan/Feb 1998, and Great Model Railroads in 2003.
Thanks to Craig for permission to post!
