A Pioneer Railway (Sign missing)
For a quarter of a century, the wood-burning steam 'locies' of the 'Cordwood Limited' hauled trains throughout the Saanich Peninsula. From 1894 to 1919, the Victoria and Sidney Railway was vital to the growth of sawmilling and agricultural communities in Saanich. Today, much of the line's abandoned grade has disappeared into an expanding highway system.
