The CPR is a huge part of B.C., Canada, and the area. This Museum does a great job telling so many stories of what it must have been like. You never thought that clearing snow off the lines was interesting until you see it done. So much to see and do. A great cloudy / rainy day adventure. Kids will love this place, just don't let them run around crazy. Chinese workers are highlighted up the stairs, don't miss their stories. If you have the time out the back are cool things to look at on the tracks. Worth the price, and the people are nice + helpful.
A nice but small museum that highlights the history of the Canadian Pacific Railroad. One third of the museum is dedicated to exhibits on how the railroad was constructed, and the other two thirds houses a Pullman car and a steam locomotive. If you take your time, you can spend a couple good hours here.
If you have an interest in trains this is the stop for you. It is privately owned and run. The museum is both inside and outside exhibits of train engines (steam & diesel) along with track maintenance equipment. Information videos are quite interesting along with a simulator of operation of the train for $2.00 if I remember correctly. There is a $10 entrance fee but it is well worth it and helps to run the facility. You will not be disappointed.
Nice museum I have to say. If you're a history buff you definitely want to visit this museum. The kids they loved it and we had to drag them off the trains to go home! I wish more places in Canada would display such part of Canadien history.
So much history here! Really well done. We loved being able to actually explore a few trains inside.
