This site was started so I could share my collection of railway images I have been taking for the past few years. All photos are my own work unless otherwise noted. From time to time I travel and try to take photos in different locations. I will post mostly images shot in Prince Rupert but not limited to here.

End of the line for the Motive Power Shed
Well it looks like the old round house / car repair shops days are numbered. CN terminated the lease with the city and gave them until February 5 to vacate the property. Rumor has it that the building will be demolished shortly after to make room from a trans-loading terminal in its place. So get out there and get your photos before it becomes just another memory.
Hi Scott, I have a photo of CN 7002taken from the departing Rupert Rocket in 1985, and it's peeking out of the engine house door while the building was still in use by CN.
