In BC's Fraser Valley and Greater Vancouver, Interurban Rail
Travel is on a Mission

The
West Coast Express operates daily between the Vancouver
Waterfront (not far from our offices in Gastown) and the
Fraser Valley community of Mission. The first day we took
our first train trip turned out to be a memorable occasion
in the annals of BC transportation. Not only was the West
Coast Express experience pleasant and friendly, we arranged
to stay overnight at the famous Westminster Abbey in
Mission. The next morning, we drove to Abbotsford Airport,
where we boarded the inaugural flight of WestJet Airlines to
Calgary, Edmonton and return. It was certainly a weekend to
remember. See
Mission Page.
More to come on the
West Coast Express and some predictions for the future of
air-rail connections in the West.
More to come.
