A Historical Beauty



On many of my walks with hubby, we pass by the Yaletown Roundhouse which houses the magnificent looking, fully restored Engine 374. It is the engine to pull the first transcontinental train from the East coast to Vancouver in 1887.

I don't really know much more about its history, but I always take a second or a third glance at it every time I pass by. I could stare at it for a while and just be in awe of how handsome and shiny it is, imagining how it might have been... way back when people rode aboard it!
