NEW: The Wildflower Meadow
What’s new at the railway? Come and check out our new Wildflower Meadow, designed in partnership with the Honeybee Centre. This amazing exhibit is eco-friendly and reflective of a simpler time. Click Here to Learn More.
“Wildflower meadows were once common in the UK, but have mostly been lost due to agricultural intensification since the 1940’s. Although these habitats have been lost forever, existing grassland can be managed to improve its species diversity and new wildflower areas, which have much in common with traditional meadows, can be created.”

Fraser Valley Heritage Rail director Allen Aubert reminds me to include the FVHR bee project in my next column. His promo worked! It's included! The society has wildflowers, bee hives and interurbans zipping around the car barn and heritage station in Cloverdale, BC. #travelinspiration #travelbc #travellingtimes #beesandtrains #SurreyBC #beesee #cloverdale #railguys #railsociety #railvolunteers #beepromo #surreyheritagerailway #fraservalleyheritagerailway #fraservalleyheritagerailwaysociety

Mya: Riding the 🚂 rails at the #FraserValleyHeritageRailway! / Halle: Check them out this Saturday for free rides on the BCER 1304, the Connaught, during its launch. 🇨🇦 #Canada150 surrey604 #surrey604 #surreybc
All aboard! If you’re looking for a fun weekend activity, consider taking a ride on The Fraser Valley Heritage Railway. All trains depart from the Cloverdale Station (Hwy 10 & 176A St) on Saturday and Sunday. The route goes from Cloverdale to Sullivan Station returns to Cloverdale. While you’re there, be sure to check out honeybeecentre bee hotel that is helping make the beautiful meadow bloom with their hard working pollinators. 📸: honeybeecentre
BCER Interurban 1225 crosses a trestle over the Serpentine River in Cloverdale. Originally constructed in 1910, the line was used by interurban cars such as this one would, making the 3 hour journey between Vancouver and Chilliwack. Service stopped in 1950 and is currently used by a freight railway. Over the last few years, the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society (FVHRS) has been running a restored interurban along the line to let visitors experience another time.
The photo is actually a composite of two separate photos. The black and white image was taken by David Davies in 1965. I'm using the image for personal/educational use which is permitted. I've overlaid my image taken from today to show how very little the backdrop has changed on 50 years!

Interurban 1225. Rumour has it these things had reached speeds of up to 80 miles an hour back in the day. These days, they are legally limited to 15. Let's hope that changes one day!

A morning at the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway. This rail car was originally built in 1912 and now restored and running. What I found fascinating was that it is powered by and electric generator. Love that feeling of nostalgia. #railcar #railway #cloverdalebc #restoredcar #nostalgic #nostalgia #explorebc #travelbc #daytrips #vancouverdaytrip #beautifulbritishcolumbia #canada #fraservalleyheritagerailway

Inter urban Car 1225
So wrapping up the row with my ride on car 1225. As soon as I stepped into the car memories of riding another old rail car with similar seats Cam’s back - the train from Lac du Bonnett to Point du Bois in Manitoba.
Car 1226 worked in Vancouver, Steveston and Burnaby from 1913 until February 28, 1958. The car ended up as part of the Orange Empire Railway Museum (OERM) in Perris California. It was returned to Vancouver and now runs on weekends in the summer.

Here's the Cloverdale Station where you catch the rail car. It's a nice relaxing 55 minutes ride round trip. #fraservalleyheritagerailway #cloverdalebc #station #nostalgia #nostalgic #explorebc #travelbc #daytrip #canada🇨🇦
A little bit of Nickel Bros heritage is now on display at the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society!
This train has been raised to allow for restoration of the motors and wheel assembly. Did you know that just one of these train cars has a total of 4 motors?? #OurPurposeIsToRepurpose
