Track plan of B & B Railways – Coming Soon Pictures of layout South Porcupine Adventurer History of the Fellowbrook Subdivision Track Plan – Fellowbrook Subdivision	Welcome to B & B Railways. This Short line railway started in Early 2004. This railway started out offering passenger services in the form of the South Porcupine Adventurer, which runs form South porcupine all the way to Hearst using its own track and the ONR’s tracks. B & B Railways was able to obtain running rights from the ONR before the first run of the SPA. The company in 2005 took its logo and made a slight change to it replacing “&” to a maple leaf-it is still know as B & B Railways. B & B Railways primary service is passenger, operating the SPA and in the Spring off 2007, the SPA Scenic train which runs from South Porcupine and follows the Fellowbrook Subdivision to Northcove. The company also maintains the SPA trains at its facility in South Porcupine. In the late fall of 2006 the railway started branching into freight. After a while of the ONR running & building the Fellowbrook Subdivision, the ONR had lost the ability to maintain and service the line due to cost and travel distance, and lack of demand needed on the line. It was decided at that point to sell the Fellowbrook. B & B Railways put in a bid as well as CN, it was decided that B & B Railway Company would better serve the area because of location and existing agreements with the ONR with business served on this line. At this point B & B took over service of the Fellowbrook and the maintenance of the track. Along with this, B & B approached CN to obtain running rights over the Suez Subdivision to gain better access to and from Northwark. The only condition set out was that B & B had to maintain the former CN/ONR interchange and to take cars back to the ONR as far as the new ONR Interchange with B & B. B & B Railway provided new agreements with the towns & business serviced by the Fellowbrook Sub. that passenger and freight would be maintained and Freight would be improved in some areas. B & B would do track maintenance with their crews and trucks.
