Mt. Stephen from Partridge |

| The view is of the upper spiral tunnel on Field Hill on a September morning about 1950. Train #2, final destination Montreal, is about to cross over the tunnel it had entered a few minutes earlier on its way to the summit of the Divide. The section house was the dwelling of the tunnel watchman who patrolled the tunnel daily, checking for possible problems. This section of the hill was named for the engineman Seth Partridge, who ran down to the Yoho section house to warn its occupants of a landslide which struck the building moments after their exit.
