For the workers that had to build the railroad through the hundreds of kilometres of muskeg, in what we call Lake Country today, they could have never known that their own personal hell would become a tourism destination a century later. One legend of the building of the line says that near Fort William, one stretch of muskeg swallowed an entire train and 1,000 feet of track."
