Alberni Pacific Railway
Experience History, Step Back in Time
The Alberni Pacific Railway is more than just tracks and trains—it’s a living piece of Port Alberni’s history, connecting our past with future generations. But to keep this incredible experience alive, we need your help!
We’re launching this fundraiser to support one crucial project that will ensure the Alberni Pacific Railway can operate in 2025:
Railyard Tie-Replacement – Time and weather have taken their toll on our tracks. We need to replace aging railway ties to keep our trains running safely and smoothly. We have a lot of ties to replace before we can run in 2025, your donation will help us complete these repairs so we can proceed 'full steam ahead'!
Several volunteers have spent many hours doing as much prep work as they can to keep costs down. The last piece of volunteer work was getting the tie spikes pulled, and a crew of 6 finished that project on a rainy Saturday work bee.
The next step is to purchase the ties and then have the crew with equipment come in to pull the old ties and replace them with new. This project will go very quickly once started, we just need funds to get it started!
We can’t do this alone. Every dollar helps us preserve this important part of our community and share it with visitors and future generations.
Join us in keeping history alive—donate today and help keep the Alberni Pacific Railway on track!
