CASO Milepost 117

CASO Milepost 117

Atop the Elevated Park in St. Thomas is a milepost marker for the Canada Southern (CASO) Line, marked as "N.F. 117". This means 117 miles from Niagara Falls, which is where the CASO line started. Today, the CASO is a distant memory with only its artefacts, such as the St. Thomas viaduct, now the Elevated Park, and its milepost. The park is decorated with several modern sculptures, including "Don't Fear the Wind", the windvane you can see, and the rebar-built frame adorned with locks.
