Long Time Gone from the Vegreville Train Station
The Off Ramp Boys, Vegreville's fourth most popular band, meet at ORB World Headquarters (aka the Vegreville Train Station's Station master's residence) for a Sunday afternoon jam session and mature our felonious plan to become Vegreville's THIRD most popular band!
If you like what you hear (or even if you don't), watch for us this summer at various events in the Vegreville area. We're also often at the open mic events at the train station on Saturday evenings.

MSTS: Railfanning in Vegreville, SK
Here are three trains which I caught on my quick stop in Vegreville, SK. The weather wasn't cooperating, but that didn't stop me. I also discovered that Vegreville is a no whistle zone. Oops.
Enjoy. Hopefully this will keep you occupied until I can get some video of real trains. As well, I'm hoping to have some new engines by next weekend, so hopefully I can start my real Blackfoot Sub railfanning.

Railfanning the CN Vegreville Subdivision in Edmonton, Alberta | June 20, 2017
The Vegreville Subdivision is owned and operated by the Canadian National Railway, and runs from Edmonton to Vermillion. The Veg usually doesn't see a whole lot of action, but today was different in that this secondary line saw mainline action. This was due to a work block on CN's mainline sending most eastbound trains onto the Prairie North Line.
