	Nipigon River
		Quotes from the annual report of the fisheries branch in 1901 described the Nipigon as the "most noted fishing river" and also the "finest trout stream in America".

	Hidden Treasures -- How Some Coaster Brook Trout Populations Survived by Michael Furtman
		Growing big by brook trout standards (the world record came from Ontario’s Nipigon River, a monster of 14 pounds, eight ounces caught in July of 1916), and blessed with the beauty of all brook trout, the coaster shares with its smaller stream-bound relatives their fatal flaw: they are easy to catch.
		Then for several days, perhaps a week, the river banks are lined with the creeping, stealthy forms of the fishermen throwing every temptation the ingenuity of man can devise before the eyes of the wary trout.
		But outside the Nipigon, the MNR still allows five coaster per day to be killed in streams, and three per day in the open waters of Lake Superior.

	Nipigon Subdivision
		Nepigon River, which is crossed by a fine bridge a little before reaching the station, is a beautiful stream, well known to sportsmen.
		True to Nipigon Sub tradition, the conductor was riding on the left side of the cupola to inspect his train around the many large bays (real reason: the scenery is nicer on that side).
		As trainmen were required to detrain at sidings and stand fairly close to the track in deep snow to inspect passing trains, it was generally beneficial to avoid having loose 3 inch steel straps randomly whistling their song of death through the air.
