Cape Tormentine Terminal
Marine Atlantic, its predecessor CN Marine, and pre-confederation Newfoundland coastal boats have a strong and proud history serving the people of Atlantic Canada through ferry terminals, passenger vessels and rail service.
In this week’s blog posting we highlight the Cape Tormentine, New Brunswick ferry terminal which serviced the Prince Edward Island-New Brunswick crossing from 1917-1997.
The community’s name was derived from the cape headland that extends into the Northumberland Strait. Recognized as an important part of both the Atlantic Canadian railway and ferry service infrastructure, Cape Tormentine became a gateway for goods and people throughout the region.
