Western Railroad Discussion > Canadian fans, need another locationDate: 01/18/02 07:06 Canadian fans, need another location Author: yardclerk Here is another picture from a friend's collection.
CP RDC 9024 in a somewhat nondescript location. Do any of you recognize this location? Yardclerk Date: 01/18/02 09:36 RE: Canadian fans, need another location Author: riff I'm not a Canadian, but I'm pretty sure that is the old E&N station in Victoria, BC.
Date: 01/18/02 15:54 RE: Canadian fans, need another location Author: ENrailway yeah it does, but the 9024 never saw service on the E&N. Here's a shot of CP 9199 in the old E&N Victoria station.

It is the old E&N Railway Depot downtown Victoria, CP tore this building down in 1972 to provide better road access to the Johnson Street Bridge. From 1972-1985 trains ran from another station built to the north of the roundhouse. In 1985 VIA Rail Canada built a new station on this location.

Much obliged to you for that location. My knowledge of Canadian railroading is poor at best. I have 3 pictures of Northern Alberta Railways to post next for you all to help me with.

Then it's gone forever...
