The Kettle Valley Steam Railway is a heritage railway near Summerland, BC. There are heritage excursion trains operated on the remaining section of the historic railway. There is a wheelchair lift so everyone can get on board.
You are invited onto the only preserved section of this historic railway: Ten miles of beautiful vistas; from lush orchards and vineyards to a spectacular view of lake and land from the Trout Creek Bridge 238 ft above the canyon floor. The sight and sound of the restored 1912 Steam Locomotive the “3716” will bring the era alive as you ride along on this 90-minute journey in a vintage passenger coach or open air.
The enclosed authentic vintage coaches are from the 1940’s; they are tastefully restored to maintain their original look and feel. These coaches are not equipped with air conditioners however there are large sliding windows that open and closed for your comfort. The open-air cars feature a roof to shelter from the hot sun, and the sides are open to allow the breeze to cool you down as you travel along the majestic tracks overlooking Summerland.
You can buy tickets in advance on the website.
