Alberni Pacific Railway

Die Alberni Pacific Railway ist ein Museumsbahnbetreiber mit Standort in Port Alberni, British Columbia, Kanada. Sie betreibt eine Strecke, die vom Hafengebiet Port Alberni bis zur McLean Mill, einem historischen Sägewerk, verläuft. Die Spurweite beträgt 1435 mm (Normalspur). Befahrene Strecken Die Züge der Alberni Pacific Railway nutzen einen 3,9 Kilometer langen Abschnitt der ansonsten nicht mehr befahrenen Bahnstrecke Parksville-Port Alberni und das Anschlussgleis, mit dem die McLean Mill an diese Strecke angebunden ist. Betrieb Während der Saison Ende Juni bis Anfang September verkehren donnerstags und samstags zwei Zugpaare, freitags und sonntags ein Zugpaar. Die Fahrten werden in Verbindung mit einer Besichtigung des historischen Sägewerks angeboten. Die Züge der Museumsbahn beginnen im 1912 errichteten Bahnhof Port Alberni und erreichen nach 35 Minuten Fahrt die McLean Mill National Historic Site. Im regulären Einsatz stehen die Baldwin-Dampflokomotive No. 7, und die Alco RS-3 No. 8427. Die Zuggarnitur besteht aus zwei geschlossenen Personenwagen und drei überdachten Sommerwagen. Die Untergestelle der Personenwagen stammen von Güterzugbegleitwagen (Cabooses) der Canadian National Railway, die Wagenkästen wurden neu gebaut. Lokomotivbestand Dampflokomotiven No. 2 ist eine von Lima Locomotive Works erbaute, 42 Tonnen schwere Shay-Dampflokomotive mit zwei Drehgestellen. Sie wurde im September 2016 restauriert. No. 7 ist eine von Baldwin erbaute, 90 Tonnen schwere Satteltank-Tenderlokomotive der Achsfolge 1’D1’. Diese Maschine bespannte im September 2016 die Züge der Alberni Pacific Railway. No. 112 ist ebenfalls eine von Baldwin erbaute Satteltank-Tenderlokomotive, allerdings lediglich mit 75 Tonnen Gewicht und der Achsfolge 1’C1’. Die im September 2016 laufende Restaurierung befand sich noch im Anfangsstadium. Diesellokomotiven No. 11 ist eine von General Electric erbaute, 45 Tonnen schwere dieselelektrische Lokomotive mit einem Cummins-Dieselmotor mit 220 PS. Die Lok wurde im Jahr 2014 betriebsfähig aufgearbeitet. No. 8427 ist eine Alco RS-3 mit einem Gewicht von 120 Tonnen und einer Leistung von 1600 PS. Sie ist zurzeit im Betrieb. Die 8427 wurde im Jahr 1953 von American Locomotive Company (Alco) für die Canadian Pacific Railway (CP) gebaut. Sie wurde um 1979 von der Firma Crown Forest Ltd. erworben, um Holztransporte in Ladysmith durchzuführen. Die Western Vancouver Island Industrial Historical Society erwarb sie um 1994/95. Diese Lokomotive ist wahrscheinlich die letzte noch erhaltene, von der CP beschaffte RS-3. Weblinks The Alberni Pacific Railway Site auf mcleanmill.ca
Alberni Pacific Railway

The Alberni Pacific Railway is a heritage railway originating in Port Alberni, British Columbia. The Alberni Pacific Railway returned to operations along the Port Alberni Waterfront in summer of 2024, and is expected to run until the end of September. The Santa Train will also return in 2024 along with other popular events. Rolling stock The railway is powered by locomotive No. 7, a 1929 Baldwin 2-8-2ST steam locomotive departing from the 1912 CPR Station. It uses rebuilt Canadian National Railway transfer cabooses as passenger cars. The 40-minute excursions go to the McLean Mill National Historic Site. Along with the steam locomotives, there is an Alco RS3 diesel electric locomotive. There are five running coaches, three open and two covered. Locomotive roster No. 2 is a Lima 42-short-ton (37.5-long-ton; 38.1 t) 2-truck Shay steam locomotive. It is on display on special occasions. It no longer holds pressure due to boiler problems. No. 7 is a Baldwin 90-short-ton (80-long-ton; 82 t) 2-8-2ST. This engine returned to service in November 2024 following a 6-year repair. No. 112 is a Baldwin 75-short-ton (67-long-ton; 68 t) 2-6-2ST. It is currently in the initial stages of rebuilding. No. 11 diesel is a World War II locomotive built in 1942 later used as a MacMillan Bloedel switching locomotive and weighs 45 short tons (40.2 long tons; 40.8 t). This locomotive is used as the back-up motive power for trains on the APR if the No. 7 breaks down. No. 8427 is an ALCO RS-3. It weighs 120 short tons (107 long tons; 109 t) and has a 1,600 hp (1,200 kW) output. It is out of service requiring work on its wheels. 8427 was built in 1954 for the Canadian Pacific Railway. It was purchased by Crown Zellerbach Ltd. around 1970's and used in their logging operation in Ladysmith. The Western Vancouver Island Industrial Historical Society acquired it around 1994–1995. This unit is believed to be the last surviving unit of a CP RS-3. Alberni Pacific 2 Revenue service (1912–1950) Alberni Pacific No. 2 is a Class B Shay locomotive built on June 28, 1912 by the Lima Locomotive Works originally as Weist Logging Co. No. 1. In 1918, the locomotive was sold to the Alberni Pacific Lumber Company at Franklin River, British Columbia as "US Army No. 7089". Between 1936 and 1952, the locomotive operated as "Alberni Pacific No. 2" in the Ash River Valley. The engine was retired in 1950 and the locomotive was donated to the City of Alberni in 1952. It stood on display in a small park at the corner of Third Avenue and Redford Street until 1978. Excursion service (1984–1994) In 1980, Robert Swanson decided to restore the locomotive into operating condition, and the locomotive returned to service in August 1984. In May 1986, it participated at SteamExpo 86 in Vancouver, British Columbia. In 1994, the locomotive made its last run. As of 2024 the locomotive is on static display with no plans of returning it to operation.

ʔEsdilagh First Nation

ʔEsdilagh First Nation (ES-dee-lah), formerly Alexandria First Nation, is a First Nation community in the North Cariboo region of British Columbia, Canada. It is the smallest of the six member communities that form the Tsilhqot'in National Government. Formerly, the people of this region were known as ʔElhdaqox-t'in, the people of the Sturgeon River (Where ʔElhdaqox refers to what is now called the Fraser River - ʔElhdachugh being sturgeon, and Yeqox being the river). Today, the community goes by the name ʔEsdilagh, which in Tŝilhqot'in language means peninsula. Chief and councillors (Dec 2024 election) Chief: Troy Baptiste Councillor: Howard Johnny (Term Ending August 2025) Councillor: William Baptiste (term ending December 2028) Treaty process As a member of the Tŝilhqot'in National Government, ʔEsdilagh chose to opt-out of the British Columbia Treaty Process, instead fighting in the BC (and later Canada) Supreme Courts to prove unextinguished Aboriginal Title - see Tsilhqot'in Nation v British Columbia. After their win against the crown, the Tŝilhqot'in Nation has been undergoing negotiations with the Province of British Columbia under the "Nenqay Deni Accord" which will lead to the establishment of Category A "Title-like lands" and Category B "co-management" lands. History The history of this region is best told by the oral traditions of the Tŝilhqot'in elders — whereby stories are told in the traditional language after the sun goes down. Formerly, the people of this region were known as ʔElhdaqox-t'in, the people of the Sturgeon River (Where ʔElhdaqox refers to what is now called the Fraser River - ʔElhdachugh being sturgeon, and Yeqox being the river). Today, the community goes by the name ʔEsdilagh, which in Tŝilhqot'in language means peninsula. During the time of the fur trade in British Columbia, many other First Nations settled in the region in order to trade with the nearby Hudson's Bay Company's Fort Alexandria. However, after two serious waves of Smallpox decimated Tŝilhqot'in populations in the late 1850s and early 1860s, the Tŝilhqot'in Nation decided it would be safest to extradite all non-Tŝilhqot'in peoples from their homeland. The threat of an intentional third wave of smallpox by one of Alfred Waddington's road crewmen in Bute Inlet was the trigger for the so-called Chilcotin War of 1864. ʔEsdilagh was the birthplace of Chief Alexis who was himself ʔElhdaqox-t'in, and who the community of Alexis Creek, and the official name of the Chilcot'in Community of Tŝideldel (Alexis Creek Indian Band) is named. Demographics Economic development Programs and facilities A new health centre was constructed in 2016, named after former ʔEsdilagh Chief Frank "Chendi" Joe. The community has been developing agriculturally as well - with a new community/market garden and a commercial sized root cellar.
