This is Cloverdale Station, built in 1910 as part of the British Columbia Electric Railway. It was a thriving community and the railway got people to downtown Vancouver in 90 minutes.

New sanseitraveler blog post: the second part of my tour of the Surrey, British Columbia, Spice Trail wasn`t just about food. We also visited the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway. Later on, we enjoyed food at My Shanti (my.shanti) and Afghan Kitchen (eatdrinkafghan).

Our scenery is picturesque, & so are our trains. The fifth annual "Paint the Train" exhibit presented by the #FraserValleyHeritageRailwaySociety, the #artscouncilofsurrey , the artsnewwest , & the LangleyArtsOrg united the Fraser Valley in appreciation of our trains.

Oh, how I miss riding the beautifully restored electric trains at the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society! 😎
.
It’s 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 they’re enthusiastic volunteers. If not, I will be on their doorstep in 2021. 👍😃
.
In the meantime, show the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society some LOVE by commenting your experience below... 😘

The Monster Mash!
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!
