Volume 2 of this invaluable reference work covers the Canadian Pacific from the Crowsnest to the Coquihalla including the Great Northern and Kettle Valley routes. From the Rockies to the Pacific and from the last spike to contemporary computer directed unit trains, this is the definitive reference work for anyone interested in the spectacular Canadian Pacific mainline across British Columbia. Over high bridges, through dark tunnels, into precipitous canyons, up steep grades and over awesome mountain passes, the text follows the present and historical mileposts of Canada's great Pacific Railway. Subdivision by subdivision, and mile by mile, the book accurately describes the remarkable engineering feats of yesterday and today. A must for anyone interested in railways or the history of British Columbia. Packed throughout with black and white photos, maps and gradient profiles. 152 pages with index. Scarce.
