    Councillor Pamela Keeping says staff are in the process of getting the little train back in action and waiting on new parts.

    The Mill Whistler, Corner Brook’s tiny tour train, is gearing up to be back on the road again but the city is also waiting on a new train. Councillor Pamela Keeping says staff are in the process of getting the little train back in action and waiting on new parts. A job posting for a street train driver closed earlier this month. At the council's public meeting this week, Deputy Mayor Linda Chaisson asked about the new train. Mayor Jim Parsons says they’re trying to get the new train as soon as possible and will have the current train on routes also.
