South Simcoe Railway

South Simcoe Railway, Heritage railway in New Tecumseth, Canada.

South Simcoe Railway runs about 4 miles (6.4 km) of track from Tottenham through the Beeton Creek valley toward Beeton and back. Trains stop at Beeton, but there is no station there, so passengers stay aboard. The excursion fleet uses restored 1920s coaches from Canadian Pacific, Canadian National, Toronto, Hamilton and Buffalo, and Louisville & Nashville.

The track follows the original Canadian Pacific Railway line from the early 1900s that once connected Hamilton with Barrie and Collingwood. Rail service on this route ended, but was later revived to keep this historical connection alive.

Local volunteers maintain and operate the trains, preserving knowledge of how steam and vintage railway systems work. This hands-on approach brings together people who want to share their passion for mechanical history.

Excursions run about 50 minutes over 4 miles (6.4 km) of track from Tottenham through the Beeton Creek valley to Beeton and back. Trains stop in Beeton but passengers cannot get off, as there is no station there. Regular trips run from the May long weekend to the weekend after Thanksgiving.

Locomotive #136, built in 1883 by Rogers Locomotive and Machine Works, appeared in the 1970s CBC television series The National Dream and helped build the Canadian Pacific transcontinental line in the 1880s. The railway also holds a former Ontario Northland business car #200 and two wooden cabooses.
