Langley Heritage Society
CN Station Fort Langley, British Columbia

Open: Weekends May to October (until Canadian Thanksgiving)

Hours: 12:00 noon to 4:00 pm.  

The Langley Heritage Society relocated the 1915 CN Station to the corner of Mavis and Glover in Fort Langley and refurbished from 1983-1985 when it was officially 'opened' by the then Lieutenant Governor of B.C., J.V. Clyne. Built and designed by the Great Northern RR it was bought by the CNR in l918. Today it houses the Fort Langley Artists Group, F.L.A.G. in the former baggage room and has a small museum in the ticket office and waiting room. Outside the station on a special piece of track sits the 1900's velocipede belonging to the B.C. Agricultural Museum.

The 'site' also has a l920's Caboose with original furnishings and with a well equipped working model RR. To the west of the Caboose is the 1947 railcar recently bought by the Langley Heritage Society and refurnished. It is manned by LHS volunteers called the "Railroader's" from May to October (until Thanksgiving); during July and August we often also have summer students on board.

Fort Langley residents take their heritage gardens seriously: lush peonies in the railway station garden are directly descended from those planted by the original stationmaster's wife.

The Langley Heritage Society received a prestigious B.C. Heritage Society 2001 Award of Honour for preservation and conservation of the CN Station Site. It's worth a visit!
