Description
Newspaper clipping from the Welland Tribune, c. 1959, showing an NS&T (Niagara, St. Catharines and Toronto) train on a speed run for spectators. The last run for the NS&T was March 28, 1959, and it was the last interurban electric railway operating in Canada.
The captioned text reads: "Speed run near Thorold gives movie makers an opportunity to catch the cars in action. White flags on the front of the car denote that it is an "extra," not a scheduled trip."
