Dear Editor, I feel obligated to correct Mr. Sam Barnes regarding his write-up in January's Downhome Magazine, "The Montreal Move," page 136. I quote, "We didn't go very far before we stopped, just before Port Blandford, where a trestle over Middle Brook had washed out." It should have been the trestle over South West River. I remember that wash out very vividly. My uncle, Edison Adams, who worked in the saw mill industry had an operation quite nearby. His father, Mr. Uriah Adams (Uncle Hughie) and his sons made wooden biscuit boxes for Purity Factories Ltd. in St. John's. It was Edison who, just after the river "riftered" - taking the trestle with it, transported himself across the South Rest River and walked toward Clarenville (Thorburn Lake area) to stop any rail traffic going west - no cell phones in April 1949! Anyone who had a punt or dory was employed transporting passengers, luggage, and freight across the South West River for an extended period of time. My cousin Joyce found the enclosed picture showing people departing the train coming from the west. They would be transported across the river by punt or dory to the train going east to Clarenville then en route to St. John's. Other passengers were going in the opposite direction from the Clarenville area west to Port-aux-Basques. Please note the old steam engine to the left in the picture.
