CP Rail East/West Mainline

04

Recommended by Chris Doering

Running across Canada, the CP Rail mainline also passes through the small town of Glenbow. For rail and transit enthusiasts, the mainline has several trains running through it over the course of the day. When the town was first established in 1907, a sandstone quarry helped establish the local economy.

Although it shut down in 1912, remains from the CPR tracks that helped transport bricks can still be found. The ground around the tracks has small wires and old telegraph poles still visible. The gates and lights around the train tracks are an excellent opportunity for photographs.
