[edit] Summary
A Windsor and Hantsport Railway train, loaded with gypsum and headed for Hantsport, approaches Windsor, Nova Scotia, at 12:40pm, 22 August 2006. This is a typical WHR gypsum train, with 22 cars each carrying 80 tons of gypsum. Each week, WHR delivers about 25 trainloads of gypsum to the Hantsport dock, where it is loaded on ships for delivery to various ports along the United States eastern seaboard. This train is rolling along the old Midland Railway main line, and will transfer to the old DAR main line through a switch located about one trainlength ahead. The track on the right is the old Dominion Atlantic Railway main line track from Windsor to Windsor Junction (the notorious Windsor Branch). Just out of sight, in the yard behind the gypsum train, a grain train for New Minas is being assembled that will follow about 20 minutes behind the gypsum train.
