Despite the Stories that were
given international prominance
'at the time of Confederation,
the train never did stop to let

In fact, since" 1898, the to-
tal time for the trip has only
been. cut five hours and 45
minutes despite the addition of
diesels and other modern in:,
provements. But, of course, the
original charter specifically
stipulated that the train was "not
intended to he what is deemed
in England or the United States
first-clas railway, ,',' ,
And prior to the CNR involve-
ment, the creaky wooden coach-
es with their coal stoves and the
light weight cars that forced
trainmen to seek shelter in lligh
winds, hacked up that statement.
It is not a Newfie joke, but a
fact that the railway relied on
a local resident in Wreckhouse
to warn of gait force winds in
the Port aux Basques region. -If
his roof shook in the wind, he
telephoned down the line and
the train was halted until the
wind died down.
The last run of the Bullet
was, originally scheduled for
June 30., 'which would have
meant train service disap-
peared on Canada's birthday.
Islanders are sill somewhat
sensitive about relationships
with the rest of Canada and'
Premier. Joty Smallwood is
said to have convinced rail of-
ficials that the timing would
be unwise. Hence, the Bullet
was given an extra day's life.
Despite the slow service, is-
landers have strong feelings abogt
their train, When it was first an-
nounced the service ^would be dis-
continued, opposition members
in the House of Commons com-
plained bitterly.
Walter Carter (PC, St. John's
West) announced last November
that he and his five Conservative
colleagues representing New-
foundland, 'have declared out-
right wai.on the Canadian Nat-
ional because we - the people of
our province - have been given
a dirty deal."
That "dirty deal" was buses
instead of train, buses that will
make the trip in 13 hours instead
of 22. But to Newfoundlanders,
the Bullet was more than a means
of transport; it was an institution.
Now it 'is only a memory,a
victim .6* the effiCiency that is-
landers see differently than the
rest of Canada.
