Canadian Railroads > Thanksgiving Trains traverse the Cranberry HarvestDate: 10/10/17 08:10 Thanksgiving Trains traverse the Cranberry Harvest Author: Marcus The cranberry harvest in British Columbia’s Fraser Valley always draws a crowd.
Flood the cranberry fields, and millions of cranberries pop up to the surface, ready for harvest. B.C. produces about 100 million pounds per year, about 12 percent of the North American total. CP transfer V89, with 7 locomotives and 176 cars, is eastbound on the CN Yale Sub main line at Langley, B.C.

CN 3028, mid-train CN 2929 Farm fresh cranberries available roadside, $2 for 1 pound, $8 for 4.5 pounds. Just leave your money, and take what you need, “Honour System”. Edited 1 time(s).

That seems to have survived the sands of time.
