With its combination of incredible scenery and many trains, the Fraser and Thompson River Canyons in British Columbia are certainly one of the seven wonders of the railfan world.  Canadian National and Canadian Pacific run nearly 60 trains between them in 24 hours through the canyon and this scenery is easily accessible.  In December of 1999 CN and CP began sharing each other's tracks through the canyon.  This video covers this unique paired track operation by showing over 24 hours of action on each line through the spectacular Fraser and Thompson River Canyons in July of 2002.  3 Hours, 51 minutes.  Three disk DVD-R, two tape set.

Yellowhead Pass in the majestic Canadian Rockies, west of Jasper, Alberta, is the lowest rail crossing of the continental divide in the Rockies.  All CN transcontinental traffic and Via's trains run through Yellowhead.  CN's business has grown rapidly with nearly 40 trains a day through Yellowhead when this was videotaped in July of 1997.  93 minutes. 

Canadian Pacific's main transcontinental line through the Rockies runs over spectacular Kicking Horse Pass in Banff and Yoho National Parks.  The famous spiral tunnels are on the steeply graded west slope and the east slope follows the scenic Bow River.  This video shows 32 hours of action between Morant's curve along the Bow River and Golden at the base of the lower Kicking Horse Canyon in July 1997. 106 minutes. 

This tape covers operations on BC Rail lines north of Prince George. The six axle Alcos are gone but the remaining four axle Alcos make the North End their home. This tape shows trains on the Dawson Creek and Fort Nelson lines, and then 24 hrs. of action on the Chetwynd sub north of Prince George, BC Rail's busiest line, in July of 1997. The electrics and trains into Prince George from the south are also shown. 60 minutes.
