History

Since 1930, the CPR Water Tower has watched over the peaceful community of Field. The 21m structure represents a deeply rooted connection to the transcontinental railway and a time when thirsty steam engines stopped in for a drink.

The iconic tower retired in 1952 with the introduction of diesel-electric engines.
