St.Louis Ghost Train

When driving through the small town of St.Louis be sure to check out the abandoned rail line, for you may see more than you bargained for. The abandoned rail line where the tracks used to be placed is home to phantom lights. These lights are seen every night and has attracted people for many years. They say that the light is that of a train, a ghost train. Others have seen a lanterns being held by the spirit of a conductor walking down the line.  There have been so many stories told of this place but all are the same, ghost train and phantom conductor. Some people say that the lights are just headlights from the highway. But if this is true, why do so many people see the exact same thing?  Check it out if your nearby.

Cannington Manor

Cannington Manor Provincial Park is a historic site located in Southeast Saskatchewan. A society built on Victorian social values, complete with fox hunts, dramatics societies, poetry clubs, croquet, cricket and tennis ... all supported by an agricultural economy.  This was the dream of British settlers who homesteaded southeast of the Moose Mountains over 100 years ago. Their way of life flourished for a few, brief years; but, by 1900, the village of Cannington Manor was abandoned.  The short life was a merry one, led by the Cannington bachelors (Remittance Men) whose whiskey camps, thoroughbred racehorses, and rugby teams became legendary. Today, Cannington Manor Provincial Park recreates this exciting period of history on the original village site.  Original artifacts and reconstructed buildings allow costumed staff to bring Cannington Manor to life through interpretative programs and period demonstrations.  http://www.saskparks.net/CanningtonManor    Cannington Man
