Freight history

[edit]

Re Ogden Point#History. No mention is made of the fact that at one time cargo ships docked here as did the MS Diemerdijk [1] of the Holland America Line on June 17th 1952. There were rail tracks and a rail barge would take railroad cars to some where in the Inner Harbour. Peter Horn User talk 18:28, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The questin rather is: When did Ogden Point cease to be used by cargo ships? Peter Horn User talk 19:08, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I found my answer at Victoria Harbour (British Columbia)#Facilities. It is still a cargo harbour. Peter Horn User talk 22:25, 12 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The car float

At one time there was a car float from the Esquimalt and Nanaimo Railway to Ogden Point. Can we find some info? Peter Horn User talk 00:50, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
