Mission Harbour station

Mission Harbour station is a railway station in Mission, British Columbia, Canada, located along CPR's Cascade subdivision. It sits just north of the Mission Railway Bridge at Harbour Avenue.

The station is served by Via Rail's The Canadian as a flag stop (48 hours advance notice required). [1] The station is only served by eastbound trains towards Toronto. Westbound trains call at Abbotsford railway station along the CN Railway tracks, on the other side of the Fraser River. This split in service between Vancouver and Ashcroft is due to CN and CPR utilizing directional running through the Thompson and Fraser Canyons.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Cisco Bridges</span> Bridge in Siska, BC

The Cisco Bridges are a pair of railroad bridges at Siska near Lytton, British Columbia, Canada. The Canadian Pacific Railway and Canadian National Railway both follow the route of the Fraser River, one on each side, and the routes exchange sides at this point. The easier CPR route was laid first; when the CNR arrived later they needed to follow the more difficult route. The area is popular with railfans due to the proximity of the two bridges, and the easy access to the area is parallel to both bridges down the east bank of the river. Directional running in the Fraser Canyon means that both CPR and CNR trains may be seen on both bridges. Although this area is generally known as Cisco, the actual CN timetable station point of Cisco is approximately 4.0 km (2.5 mi) to the east of the bridges.
