Pic #19. That used to be the eastern controlling substation for the B.C. Electric Railway, who's main duty was to ferry dairy and farm products east to markets in the lower part of the Frazer Valley. It was also a passenger train, but not the sort of transport you'd use if you were in a hurry. At the time it was concieved and built, it was the only viable produce transportation system available. There were roads alright, but they were in really poor shape. In fact, many were not much more than roads in name only.
