North Shore Mementos

While cleaning up the 277, I came across a couple of interesting items. (L) A tag for a "Prepaid Emergency Shipment" on the North Shore. This one is somehow stamped for IRM on Sep. 23, 1973. Perhaps this was for some sort of observance of the tenth anniversary of abandonment, but that's a little before my time.

(R) A fragment of a CERA bulletin from 1948. Mopst of the news is about the North Shore. It is still a going concern and has just purchased new freight locomotives, although streetcar service is rapidly being phased out.
