Finally some good news in the midst of this all! This morning on the news it said that Heritage Minister Sheila Kopps promised that the federal government would pay for the reconstruction of the trestles! It also said that there was the possibility of maybe having a benifit concert like the Rolling Stones SARS concert in Toronto. It's good to know that Ottawa has some intelligent ideas for a change. I personally would love to see tracks built on the old KVR right of way again for tourist operation. I know there's the KVR tourist railway that runs a Shay near Summerland. I've been to BC a few times but haven't had a chance to ride on it because they tended to have weird operating days (Teusdays and Thursdays if I remember correctly). I'm not sure how much of this actually runs on the original KVR line. Of course, it would be extremely expensive for such a project, but I'm sure it would be very popular for railfans and tourists, escecially with all of the spectacular scenery and the trestles.
