Historia
Double-ended steel rail car ferry, 2,382 gross tons. Built by Davie Shipbuilding & Repair Co. in Québec in 1918, for the Canadian Northern Pacific Railway. By the time she reached British Columbia, the Canadian Northern Pacific Railway had gone into bankruptcy and the vessel was purchased by the newly-established Canadian National Railway to provide rail freight car connection between Sidney and Port Mann (Vancouver). She was withdrawn from service in 1932 due to the depression, and resumed service in 1937 between Point Elice Dock, Victoria and Port Mann. She was retired in 1967, reported by nauticapedia.ca to be still afloat in 2014.
