The West Coast Mini Rail is located in Squamish, B.C. Canada. Located 40 miles north of Vancouver on highway 99.
The mini rail phase 1 was built this year and opened on July 13th 1996.We have approximately 2500 feet of 7½" gauge track. A loop at one end and a wye at the other end. This railway is located within the West Coast Railway Heritage Park and serves to transport visitors in the park.
Phase 2 will see a total of approximately 5,000 feet, however no date as yet for the start of phase 2. We wish to enhance phase 1 before we get into phase 2.
This was all constructed by dedicated volunteers.
The season is from end of May to end of October. However at the end of 1996 we had a bonus as we operated the mini rail within Canada Place in Vancouver. Canada place held a special christmas display and mini rail was a big part of it.
