A peek from the Town Crier files – January 28, 1986 – A CN snowplow became wedged in a 12 foot high snow drift just north of Mildmay on January 14, 1986. Workers attempted to free the plow unit by hand-shovelling, but that was fruitless and a tractor snowblower was called in to clear out around the derailed unit. The train was later placed back on the track and continued its journey north.
