Thanks for sharing. I was looking for a map after wabooba mentioned the railway as I had never heard of it before. Talk about circuitous!

Just for fun, I would love for someone to do the estimated cost for a railway from Hope to Princeton to Penticton to Kelowna. Utilizing as much dynamite as possible, of course

Are we talking 10s of billions? More?

Of course, the more economical option would be Hope to Merritt to Kelowna, following the Coq and then 97C, but what fun is that?
