Canadian Government Railways waybill

I recently won a Canadian Government Railways (CGR) waybill from December 18, 1926. The waybill is for a snowplow to be transported from Stanley to Doaktown.


I love stuff like this!

25 Intercolonial Railway Waybills on eBay

Want some waybills? Starting price is $9.99, no bids yet.

As you may or may not know, I collect railway paperwork. Waybills are definitely included in that. I have a fair collection of waybills, and I daresay I probably have enough Intercolonial Railway waybils. My wife might say one is more than enough. ;)

European and North American waybill

I recently won a European & North American Railway waybill off eBay, and it arrived today. It is dated April 5th, 1875 and I've put a scan on my RailDocs site.

The European & North American was intended to run from Saint John, NB to Shediac, NB. It ran out of money and was completed by the province, and became part of the Intercolonial Railway when that was built.

I love collecting these old bits of paper. There's a waybill from the New Brunswick Railway from the same seller that I am coveting. :)
