Express
Ride a Speeder Down the Spur
Buzz down the tracks on the Honey Bee Express!
The Honey Bee Express is a refurbished speeder which originally was used by maintenance people on the railway. We built passenger cars for it to pull and therefore it becomes the Honey Bee Express.

Spent a lovely morning with the volunteers at the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society last week. Nickel Bros raises the trains here to allow access to restore undercarriage parts like the motors and wheel assemblies. If you haven`t paid this site a visit, make sure it`s on your summer to-do list!

Oh, how I miss riding the beautifully restored electric trains at the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society! ๐
.
Itโs an annual ride I would take with my family for sure.
I also make a point of introducing them to as many friends and clients alike as I can throughout the summer.
.
This seems to be one of the hidden treasures in Cloverdale!
.
Hopefully, they will open later in the summer providing it is safe for everyone, especially theyโre enthusiastic volunteers. If not, I will be on their doorstep in 2021. ๐๐
.
In the meantime, show the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society some LOVE by commenting your experience below... ๐

Thank you to everyone who has purchased tickets to the Monster Express! It is now sold out! However, you have one last chance to ride Surrey`s Heritage Rail this season, and that`s, this Saturday, October 9, we still have a few tickets left! All aboard!
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!
