Last Saturday, my youngest son and I were able to visit the Huntsville and Lake of Bays Railway (www.portageflyer.org), a small, narrow-gauge heritage railway in Huntsville, where 35 of us attended a special rail-fan day. (Huntsville is in Muskoka, about 2.5 hours north of Toronto by car.)
It was great riding behind their diesel, seeing an 0-4-0 under repair in the engine shed, but the best treat of all was watching, photographing and riding on an oil-fired 0-4-0 for several hours.
This is a great railway to visit, especially during the summer when they run their steam engine more often.
