The Trains and Railways of Canada, 1930 Home Movie | 16mm Film Scan
Sign in to track this film in your collection or want list.
A short 16mm silent home movie showcasing various trains in Canada from 1930, along with a station and workers unloading equipment for a new rail line. It showcases the 'Countess of Dufferin" in Winnipeg, so I could assume most of the footage is from the Manitoba province. Showcases sleeper cabin trains, locomotives and more.
For this scan rather than cropping to the standard 1.33 ratio I cropped to 1.38, allowing for basically the full frame in view.
