context_page_description: Alberta Prairie Railway Excursions is a heritage railway originating in Stettler, Alberta.
  The train runs between Stettler and Big Valley. The trips last five to six hours, with a stopover. Many trains are pulled by the number 41, a 1920 Baldwin 2-8-0 steam locomotive, formerly Mississippian Railway number 77, and sometimes by CN U-1-f 4-8-2 number 6060. On days when the steamers are not running, the railroad operates diesel switcher SW-1200 number 1259 and GMD GMD1 number 1118. Until the end of the railroad's 1999 season, it also operated on the 60-mile route to Coronation, Alberta, which is now abandoned.
