40 Perspective: Foreign faces by Robert D. Turner
Occasionally, locomotives and rolling stock from other countries are brought to North America where their foreign appearance can make them stand out.

61 My visit to the legendary Gorre & Daphetid by Robert Hogan As a teenager, the author was invited to visit one of the world's most famous model railroads. Its creator, John Allen, would have turned 100 this year. Join us for a look back at that visit and a railroad that's been gone for almost 40 years.

Cover
Okanagan Landing was a busy place in 1914. The S.S. Sicamous, seen here surrounded by scaffolding, was under construction and, in addition to its regular service, the Canadian Pacific was running special trains to bring in workers. Here, a trainload of laborers is seen departing Okanagan Landing for the short trip to Vernon in the late afternoon. This HO diorama was built by members of the North Okanagan Model Railroad Club. It is on display in the former stationmaster's house at Okanagan Landing, which now houses the Vernon and District Museum. Photograph by Don Weixl.
