Big I And M's No More         
Once upon a time the Big (and Little) I & M trains crossed Eagandale Blvd here. But when the Soo Line took over only the local job soon ran, and in 1994 Soo parent Canadian Pacific threw in the towel on the line from here to Cliff Junction supposedly on account of the steep grades out of the river valley. What a shame.
