Thurso and Nation Valley Railway, Published 6 February 1946 A real friend writes to point out that although I may have tried a lot of railways, I have not up till now travelled the Thurso-Nation Valley Railway, up over the Singer limits. I seem to recall writing something about this before, but I would like to settle the topic now, once and for all. The Nation Valley is not a common carrier. You cannot buy tickets on it, on an interline basis, nor could you route freight from Toronto to St. Andre Avelin, for instance, on a bill of lading. I might be wrong about this. But the: Singer streamliner fails to meet the acid test; it is not in the Railway Guide. If it's not there, it's not a railway |
