Trains, Peaks and Tourists
returns us to the golden age of Canadian travel when the
railway was king. Through the efforts of the CPR and its
competitors, the wonders of Canada were introduced to its own
people and to its multitude of tourists from around the world.
Between the completion of the C.P.R. in 1885 and the waning of
the golden age in the depression, Canada became known to the
world as a land of extraordinary landscapes, exiting
recreational opportunities and interesting people. Explore the
railroad services, hotel facilities, tourist resorts,
advertising campaigns and giants of our history that have left
an indelible mark on what Canada is today.
