It is a Saturday and the roundhouse is closed as the G20 Summit is in full flight. What to do? A road tripwas in order!
.
I had never checked out the Railway Museum of Eastern Ontario in Smiths Falls, Ontario. We got the TH&B caboose and they got the Dental Car. And what a beauty the Dental Car is. The color is a little faded outside. But inside it is in almost pristine condition. The wood walls and the dentist chair are impressive. All just like it was yesterday.
.
There are other artefacts on site that are worth the trip. These include:

• The 1947 CP Cadillac inspection car
• CP’s 1957 Diesel 6591
• CNR’s 1912 Steam Locomotive #1112
• Wickham Track Cars
  
• A string of cabooses, some in poor condition, one in excellent condition
• Automobile box cars.

The Smiths Falls Canadian Northern Railway's is the main display area and is beautifully restored."
