We are very excited that the WDM Short Line came home to the Moose Jaw
WDM in 2011.
Ride the WDM Short Line 101 Victoria Day Weekend - Labour Day Weekend
(weather permitting)
Why was the Short Line out of steam?
The
Vulcan 0-4-0
Locomotive required a new boiler.
While the Short Line is back, the new boiler is
not yet paid for, so donations through the purchase of railway
ties are still gratefully accepted.
You can help! Fundraising efforts are underway to raise
the needed $150,000 to cover the costs of having a new, custom built boiler made and
installed.
