Abstract / Description
Photo taken two days after a flood on the 8th of September 1938. Had torn out the tracks of the MacLean Coal Company the second time within 4 days that it had occurred. One track (the right hand one) had been partially uncovered, lowered, and re-tied, it took 90 standard ties and 8 switch ties to replace those that had been torn loose and washed away.
