About the Hanley Spur

Linking downtown Kingston with the Montreal to Toronto mainlines of CN and CP! A benign knowledge of this historic trackage on the other side of Kingston eventually led to choosing the Hanley Spur as the modelled locale of my HO scale layout. For the purposes of this blog, I'll refer to CN's Hanley Spur and CP's Kingston Subdivision within city limits as simply 'the Hanley Spur'.
