Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This image shows the western terminus of the Nosbonsing and Nipissing Railway at Callander Bay on Lake Nipissing. The N&N was a short line lumber portage in central Ontario, Canada, connecting Lake Nipissing to Lake Nosbonsing, where logs could then be floated on the Mattawa River to Ottawa.

The line was abandoned in 1912, but the charter was reused for an entirely different line formerly known as the Egan Estates Railway, some distance to the southeast.

The engine is the "J.R. Booth", named for the line's owner, and was later used on the Ottawa, Arnprior and Parry Sound Railway (OA&PS), also owned by Booth.
