the G&W line is CP's foothold attempt to get traffic outta the Soo without actually being there....from what I remember, CP still owns the line, G&W leases it and is responsible for the maintenance....which leads to me to believe that G&W is trying to get CP involved with some maint. reimbursement by claiming they don't make enough money on this line to keep running it for CP indirectly. Last year, there was a proposal by a local (Sudbury) company that was interested in taking over the operation....G&W relented from their shut-down notice of Dec. 2020 til June of this year---me thinks that they were surprised that someone else would want the line (and probably make some $$$ doing it)-- one wonders if CP will tire of G&W's antics and let the local boys take over....
