There was a short line Railroad built in 1947 it went from Montreal to Lachine. I was wanting to buy one of the passenger tokens. They're pretty pricey though going for $450 at auction plus fees.

Here's a few other old time pictures I tracked down. Lachine market circa 1910. Old hardward store circa 1914. Old Lachine Hospital and a more recent picture of a shunting locomotive at the Dominion Bridge site.

Some humour for the crew.

It was a busy day at the cathedral. But the priest was summoned away for an emergency. He wondered, “What to do? What to do?” I can’t leave the confessional.

And then came the idea.

“I’ll see if the Rabbi can fill in while I’m out.”

He walked across the street to the schul, and when he presented the idea to the Rabbi, the Rabbi said, “Well, I’m not sure. We don’t have anything like that here.”

The priest replied,. “I’ll show you. Just stick with me.”

As the priest and the Rabbi sat on one side of the confessional, someone sat down on the other side.

“Father, forgive me, for I have sinned,” the man said.

“What did you do”? asked the priest.

“I committed adultery,” he said.

The priest asked, “How many times?”, and the man answered, “Three times”.

The priest said, “Say two Hail Marys, put $5 in the box, and go and sin no more.”

The man thanked the priest and left.

Moments later, a woman sat down in the confessional, and the priest asked her what she’d done.

“I committed adultery,” she said. “Three times,” she added.

The priest said to her, “Say two Hail Marys, put $5 in the box, and go and sin no more.”

The Rabbi felt more confident, he said, so the priest thanked him and left.

The Rabbi is alone in the confessional. After a few moments, a man enters and sits down. He says, “Father, forgive me, for I have sinned.”

The Rabbi asks, “What did you do?”

The man replies, “I committed adultery,” and the Rabbi asks, “How many times”?

The man says, “Once”.

The Rabbi says, “Well, go and do it two more times, we’ve got a special this week, three for five dollars.”
 

Having some stuffed peppers for supper with a green salad on the side. Should be tasty with our home made sauce using garden tomatoes. We're up to 300 lbs or so and counting.
Made Roast beef dinner with red skinned mashed pots and mushroom/onion gravy :)
