Hello, I live in Vancouver B.C and there are plenty of places to catch the C.P.R and C.N in action around here. There is also a train called the rocky mountain express that goes from Vancouver to Calgary through the fraser canyon.It is a spectacular ride through there as you have the thompson river flowing through and differnt types of scenery from desert to lush green. Well if your interested here is there website.www.rockymountaineer.com, good luck with your trip. if you need further info plz contact me at jadesprings@hotmail.com

I'm heading over to Vancouver from England for the first time ever and hope to catch either CN or CPR in action. Does anyone have a favourite view point they can suggest in the Vancouver, Banff, Jasper areas? many thanks
