Lots of goings on here. CPR ship arriving, CPR steam and ancient coaches there to greet the steamship and take travellers home. The Canadian Pacific not only spanned the world but it served its communities very well in its day, ( when civilization existed).
But... hold on a bit... what about that boy so prominently captured in the image. No one there to meet him?.. no one. He has well cleared the activity behind him and is lugging it on his own. He is the right age that he could be still around, a classic dude like most of us. He does look determined to get home and paying no mind to the steam locomotive or the train. Perhaps never became a railfan. Not sure that scenario of going it alone would play out today. Call the cops!, a visit to the parents by Child Welfare, maybe make the news.

There's a lot of activity on the CPR wharf in Digby, N.S. as the Princess Helene has arrived and passengers and automobiles disembark. It is a hot summer day as passengers hang out the windows on the old wood coaches. I can't however make out the number of G2 class engine. In the back is a mid-1950s Jaguar Saloon preparing to take it wealthy owners probably
to the Digby Pines Hotel. A CPR hotel, it was very popular as a tourist destination much like The Algonquin
in St. Andrews NB. Meanwhile in the forground "junior" isn't met by anyone it seems and he has to
hoof it with his bag in hand. Canadian Pacific Railway/Steve Morris Collection
