This is how the CN Cayuga sub crossed a short valley on the west edge of Delhi Ontario. This bridge needs more repairs and there isn't enough revenue to make them worth while. The Cayuga sub is out of service at this point.

The CN Cayuga Sub was originally the CANADA AIR LINE across Southern Ontario from Fort Erie to St. Thomas following the north shore of Lake Erie. The United States railway Wabash held running rights between Buffalo and Detroit avoiding the more populated areas on the south shore of Erie. These lines were scaled back and many sections were closed. The last was between Delhi and Tillsonburg. First Trillium Rail and then Ontario Southland served the few remaining customers until April 30 2020 when Ontario Southland ran their last train.
