Drove through here in 1993, and stayed in town. The trains stop here as there is a great restaurant near the station. Excellent food and prepped quickly, all drivers go in there to eat.
The historical significance of White River, particularly as outlined by Cornelius Van Horne, then chief-engineer for the construction of the CPR, should be a source of amazement and wonder for the generally unaware Canadian populace. 2024/09/29. Ontario, Canada.
The VIA RDC-4 #6250, RDC-1 #6205 and RDC-2 #6219. A second RDC-2 #6217 is absent. These are the only operational RDC's left, (used primarily on the Sudbury-White River route) RDC-1 #6205 (in the middle) was actually built in Canada by Canadian Car & Foundry.
@@northlanderdude Yep, a typo. Thanks. As of April, 2024 The Sudbury RDC fleet is composed of RDC2s Nos. 6217 and 6219, RDC1 No. 6105, and RDC4 No. 6250. .... but their service days are unfortunately, also numbered.
@@northlanderdude I use to see them run Montréal/Hull, Québec back in the 70s but that service was pulled long ago. I would love to ride the Sudbury/White River train. It's never too late I guess. I'll have to add it to my bucket list. Gotta love those Budds.
Loved it when the RDCs ran throughout Atlantic Canada.

Correction for your typo error... the RDC-1 is numbered 6105, not 6205 which is an RDC-2 stored at VIA's TMC yard in Toronto.
