Grand Trunk Pacific

Transportation
The last spike in Canada's second trans-continental railroad was driven near this site on April 7, 1914. The Grand Trunk Pacific became the most important factor in the development of Central British Columbia. However, financial problems plagued the company, forcing it in 1923 to amalgamate with the expanding Canadian National Railways system.
