A series of photographs illustrating some of the steps involved in assembling mixed train 622 ("the Little Bear") that ran from Cochrane to Moosonee until June 2007 when it was replaced by twice weekly freight trains and a five day a week (six in summer) passenger train. The mixed train ran three times a week in each direction. Switching in Moosonee is done by the train crew both the evening of arrival and the morning of departure. Freight is handled at the station as well as at the Moosonee airport, "consumer" (near the station) and commercial (airport road) loading ramps for vehicles and industrial sidings for fuel and other materials along the shore of the Moose River.
The Ontario Northland Railway line runs north from Cochrane to Moosone. In the summer the mixed train, which carries both passengers and freight, is supplemented by the Polar Bear Express excursion train.
