When the C P.R built the Kettle Valley sub division across southern British Columbia, They constructed the bridge over Trout Creek. At the time it was the highest railway bridge in Canada and is still in use by the Kettle Valley Steam Railway, a tourist line. This was a commissioned painting which specified the bridge must appear as it was originally built, with wooden trestlework at each end. These were later filled in to reduce maintenance costs, a typical type of construction used by North American railways which enabled a bridge to be built relatively quickly and economically,and upgraded later as time and money became available. The double headed freight train, heading west out of Penticton is fighting a 2% grade using two P class 5300 2 - 8 - 2's built in the 1920's.
