The Kettle Valley Steam Railway is a heritage railway near Summerland, British Columbia. The KVSR operates excursion trains over the only remaining section of the Kettle Valley Railway through beautiful vistas, orchards, vineyards, and over the tall Trout Creek Trestle. Trains depart at 10:30 and 1:30 Sat-Mon during the spring and fall and Thurs-Mon through July and August. Check the schedule for special events such as the Great Train Robbery and the Christmas Express. Trains are pulled by ex-Canadian Pacific 2-8-0 steam locomotive #3716 (N-2-B class), built in 1912. The railway also has an ALCO S-6 diesel electric locomotive (originally Southern Pacific #1050, more recently owned by Portland Terminals, then Neptune Bulk Terminals〔(Neptune Terminals )〕 in North Vancouver).〔http://www.kettlevalleyrail.org/about-us/locomotives/〕〔http://www.trainweb.org/rosters/NeptuneBulkTerminals46.html〕 Between 1995 and 2009 a 2-truck Shay locomotive, Mayo Lumber #3, was on loan from the BC Forest Discovery Centre in Duncan; it was returned to Duncan on 17-Sep-2009. All trains depart the Prairie Valley railway station In Summerland BC.jpg.〔http://www.discoveryforest.com/?mayo-lumber-company-shay-no.-3,174〕 ==See also== *List of heritage railways in Canada *Kettle Valley Railway 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kettle Valley Steam Railway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
