Scope and Content
CPR No. 3, the westbound "Dominion", with engine 2829 under 1st Street Bridge
Notes
View includes former Empire Brewery, [then] in use by Bell Bottling Co.; Safe crossing over the CPR eliminated the need for a flagman. "Telltails" warn switchmen riding on top of railcars of low overhead clearance. Old Empire Brewery was (late 1950's) a feed mill, making grain feeds for livestock.
As of this date, most homes in the city have been heated with natural gas for 20 years. However there is still a good market for stoker coal in rural areas, and Cumming & Dobbie seem to be the last agents for it.
