Sydney, Nova Scotia, VARIOUS SHOTS of an old train being pulled by a coal-fired steam locomotive (Number 42) that used to stop at the town of Glace Bay, a very prosperous town on Cape Breton Island in the 19th century. We also see the railroad covered with weeds and nature taking its place again, as well as details of the locomotive’s wheels.
