Canadian Pacific Railway

The Canadian Pacific Railway yards as they appeared in 1910. Great development had taken place in the preceding twenty years, since the first train left Yorkton in 1891. In the picture above, left center, it will be noted that in 1910 the fair grounds were on the present site of Jubilee park, the live stock building and large tents are seen. On the right is Livingstone Street.

The “Peanut”

A steam locomotive is seen pulling several train cars on a Canadian Pacific Railway (C.P.R.) ‘Spur Line’ running between Reston, Manitoba and Wolseley, Saskatchewan from 1908 to 1961. It was affectionately named “Peanut” as its whistle resembled the sound of a peanut vendor’s cart.
