Hello Steve123, the history of what this token represents is interesting:The century-old CPR trestle bridge spans 1,765 feet (538 metres) across and soars 110 feet (34 metres) above the Seguin River in Parry Sound. An engineering triumph in its day, it is the longest CPR trestle bridge in Ontario. The first scheduled train crossed the bridge in 1908 â€" an awesome sight and now an iconic image of town history.
I would guestimate the value between $8.00$15.00.

Thanks, Glenn. Good info on the history. This token would be interesting to mucicipal trade tokens and also train buffs. Would like to learn of composition (probably mostly nickel).
