Dear All, Freight trains still run to Halifax to supply and unload the container ships. I don't know as to the extent of passenger service. Moncton, NB is only about 40 miles from Hansford and Doug Robblee should be able to tell us if there is passenger train service there. Hansford is close to Oxford on the NS maps and is about an hour from the Halifax airport, which is itself about 20 minutes from the city. HOpe this helps. Bob
