Vijay Shivdasani (07/06/2020)
We stopped at the McBride Train Station in July 2019 when we did the VIA Rail trip from Jasper to Prince Rupert. The station is housed in a heritage building in the pretty village of McBride which is located 166 km west of Jasper and 210 km southeast of Prince George in the Robson Valley region of British Columbia. The train station was built by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway in the year 1913. It was rebuilt and reopened in 1919 after being burnt down by a fire in 1918. What we thought would be a whistle stop on our VIA Rail journey from Jasper to Prince George turned out to be a much longer halt at the McBride Rail Station. We were waiting for a freight train to pass, so we were allowed to get down and stretch our legs at McBride. We found the building to be quite interesting because of the Visitor Centre being located here. We found quite a good collection of complimentary pamphlets and maps of the interesting places of British Columbia and particularly of the Rocky Mountains.
