Additional Description: The farewell excursion train in Hamburg, 1962. Train transportation faded here as more cars and trucks were used, and the last scheduled train stopped in Hamburg in 1960. The rail spike (left) is a trace of the Grand Trunk Railroad line, recently torn up to create the Lakeland Trail for the community.
