Awesome place

We visited the BC Rail & Forestry museum with our kids. The boys especially were thrilled to see the authentic trains and the Turn table. We were able to walk through some of the displays as we “socially distanced “ from other families that toured the establishment. The site has buildings as well, of days gone by, of train depots, work shacks, equipment shacks. All of which are furnished with furniture and items from that era. Quite enchanting. As we walked through the grounds, we found a fully laden cherry tree, Apple trees and a raspberry patch which all had ripe fruit. A very pleasant place to learn from and walk through. Our only disappointment was that the small train that runs the perimeter of the museum yard, was not operational because of COVID 19.

Fantastic. Wonderful to see how trains & forestry operated in early 1900's. Amazing work building our country. Loved learning the history behind each train & forestry equipment.

This is a must see for any train enthusiast. The displays are nicely laid out. It was really interesting reading about the history of the railway network through central BC.

Great place for a visit. Good documentation is in the handout, self-tour brochure. There are many old buildings, trains, and equipment to explore with some very nice surprises of prestige carriages with strong connections to BCs history. For the moment, the miniature train is not running but there are still many fascinating objects to keep the family occupied. A curator is available to answer the many questions that may arise from the tour.
