Canadian National steam engine 6218 — a 1942 4-8-4 Northern — takes centre stage at the Town of Fort Erie's railway museum, with displays and a gift shop in two historic stations relocated to the site: the original Grand Trunk station from Ridgeway and Fort Erie's B-1 station. Fort Erie was once home to the third-largest rail yard in Canada.
