There are lots of fun options this Canada Day. CNR Station is part of a new Scavenger Hunt, and our volunteers will be near the action at the Langley Centennial Museum. There are lots of activities and entertainment planned on King Street, and at Willoughby. Check out the schedule HERE. See you Monday!
Music at the station! Our summer buskers return to the Fort Langley CNR Station starting this Sunday, featuring Jana Seale. An accomplished performer, Jana has 5 CDs and a vocal style reminiscent of Joni Mitchell & Joan Baez. She'll perform Sunday June 30th from noon until 3 pm. Join us, and then visit our classic 1915 station, caboose & model railway, passenger car and FLAG art gallery. More about Jana's music HERE.
