North of Hayford & the BRC I wonder how much of the old GTW Elsdon area is still in place. CN did build a lumber transload facility on the old site. AFAIK the Railport TOFC facility has been abandoned?

It may have been a long while since the most action seen on this part of the Elsdon sub was a GTW to N&W auto parts transfer. The cars were dropped on one part of the old main north of 63rd.
