ROYAL HUDSON TO STEAM IN THE FRASER VALLEY
=20
For Immediate Release:
=20
Vancouver, BC, April 13th, 2009 - The world famous Royal Hudson steam =
locomotive #2860 will make its first =E2=80=9CSpecial Event=E2=80=9D =
outing for 2009, with a public excursion from New Westminster=E2=80=99s =
Fraser Discovery Centre at New Westminster Quay to Cloverdale and return =
on Saturday May 2nd and Sunday May 3rd. The occasion is New =
Westminster=E2=80=99s 150th birthday and the 100th anniversary of =
Interurban rail service in the area. The train is set to depart New =
Westminster at 10:00AM and arrive in Cloverdale about 11:30 AM. It will =
make a return trip later in the afternoon with a stop at Sullivan =
Station, site of the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society=E2=80=99s =
operations.
=20
=E2=80=9CBritish Columbian=E2=80=99s will once again delight to the =
sights and sounds of steam, as the classic Royal Hudson makes this =
historic outing=E2=80=9D, said Don Evans, President and CEO of the West =
Coast Railway Association, which rebuilt and now cares for the =
locomotive.=20
Plans for this icon of British Columbia tourism are for her to play a =
role in occasional special event activities, such as these. Over future =
years many will be able to see and understand this piece of our history =
as she makes live appearances to various locations for other special =
event functions.
=20
Royal Hudson #2860 carried tourists between North Vancouver and Squamish =
from 1974 until 1999, becoming one of British Columbia=E2=80=99s top =
attractions. After completing the 1999 season, however, the locomotive =
was not able to pass inspections for continued operation without major =
boiler work. She was pulled from service and set aside for this work, =
but then put up for disposition by the Province in 2002. A joint =
proposal from the West Coast Railway Association and the District of =
Squamish was made and accepted. #2860 moved to the West Coast Railway =
Heritage Park, now the =E2=80=9Chome of the Royal Hudson=E2=80=9D in =
that year. The boiler repair project started in 2004 and was completed =
in September 2006.
=20
The West Coast Railway Association gratefully acknowledges the support =
and cooperation of SRY RailLink, Fraser River Discovery Centre, Fraser =
Valley Heritage Railway Society, CN, and Rocky Mountaineer Vacations in =
the operation of these special trips. Tickets are available at the =
604-524-1011 or tours@wcra.org.
