Hey Grizz: Great history lesson here and ideally documented. The thoughts of being on a train crossing that trestle gives me the willies. I hope you and yours are keeping well. All my best, Ron.

I am delighted to hear the good news about the restoration. We'll be relying on you Grizz for photos, you do know that. Happy Valentine's day for Thursday. Hope your day is really special. Hugs, Jayne x

Hi there, this album really captured my attention, went through it twice and also read it twice. It certainly is an awesome piece of engineering the 1954 picture of the passenger train going over it certainly is mind blowing. Thanks for the recent comments the seagulls one happened because it was a dull windy day and I was bored. For now best wishes Paul.

Hi Grizzly, I have enjoyed the slideshow very much. This is a splendid railway album! I like all the photos. It's something different and I find it unique. Thanks for sharing! ~Alice

said aliceteh 2007.02.24 at 03:38:34 PST

They're getting close to deciding to refurbish the tressel....I hope they don't tear it down. Will have to look for the old gold mine above Goldstream you mentioned on my site...son will be thrilled. Thanks Grizz

said calalily67 2007.02.19 at 06:12:12 PST

I remember we cycled from Shawnigan to Cowichan Lake and since the tressel looked a little too dangerous to cross <wink> we crossed the raging river below carrying our bikes. We went the long way around on the way back. ;-)

said calalily67 2007.02.19 at 06:10:01 PST

Beautiful album. Brought big lump to my throat. My brothers and I would ride the train as it turned around on the turn table headed back towards Monterey, Calif. Now that's just a trailer park. So sad.

said knuzdenwitch 2007.02.15 at 01:02:52 PST

What can I say??? Marvelous, educational, and wonderful engineering feat to behold. Love it!! Now you have awakened me to do a few video things. Also you have created my desire to travel, I do anyway but even moreso when you see something you would dearly love to see in person. A+ job-no doubt about it!!

Hi Griz! Thanks for sharing this piece of history with us. I hope the .......... never destroy it. It is an amazing construction. Catch you later mate! Cheers Al

Hello Grizz. Brilliant additions and video to complete this wonderful historic piece of engineering. Pleased to see that your weather is brightening up. Guess what? We're forecast SNOW this week and I thought we were going to be lucky enough to escape it this winter. Brrr. Take care. Hugs, Jayne xx

said hjaynefoster 2007.02.05 at 00:33:27 PST

Hi Grizz, love the new additions, especially the video, very well done,take care hugs Ann (uk)

said annedm1 2007.02.04 at 22:00:18 PST

Another interesting bit of our history captured by your camera.It is interesting to see how objects constructed without all the modern technology have held up so well. Good work. Ride safely {not on the Trestle} Jo.

said gojom 2007.02.03 at 17:20:00 PST

Hi Grizz. We can count on you for an album of interest and a history lesson at the same time. I do hope to hear that the 'Kinsol Trestle' is, against all odds, restored to it's former glory. Enjoy your week. Cheers, Jayne x

Hello! Nice little album you have here. Keep it up and thank you for sharing it with us on WS! vi

said emxauxi 2007.01.23 at 20:39:59 PST

Thanks Grizz, this is an interesting piece of history. I hope they do restore it. It must have taken a long time to build it and some pretty smart people too.

said mamabear250 2007.01.23 at 19:51:41 PST

Thanks for braving the elements to get these great shots for us of this piece of history. What a shame some people want to burn it. It is truly a masterpiece in design for its time.

said albertsville 2007.01.23 at 18:08:31 PST

I enjoyed your photos of this trestle, Grizz ... great shots, especially with the slippery, snow-covered ground! Happy to see you enjoying your new 'toy'. ... Judy
