Question about CN's abandoned Cowichan division. *PIC*

Brian McCamish · **Posted:** Sun Jul 25, 2004 11:11 pm

For anyone here who knows much about Vancouver Island RRs, I'm trying to figure out when the Canadian National Cowichan division was built and when it was abandoned. Also, does anyone know the date of construction on the E&N steel bridge just south of Duncan, BC?

On my Russell Roundhouse page, I have a Cowichan Division bridge and Duncan E&N bridge pictures at the bottom of the page and I'm trying to place accurate dates of construction and use with these. Thanks much.

An excellent time reference to Canadian Railroads.

Lines of COUNTRY, not 'county'. I forgot the 'r'. Sorry.

Thanks for the info. That's a neat looking book. I wish someone made as detailed a reference book for my area around Oregon and Washington.
