You’ll have noticed, I’m sure, the spectacular Toad Hollow photo of the Kinsol Trestle that’s the masthead for www.CowichanChronicles.com. (Thanks to good friend and great photographer Scott Johnson.)
(You can also see an excellent photo and scale model exhibit of the Kinsol Trestle,at the Shawnigan Lake Museum, by the way.)
For those of you who’ve never visited the Kinsol Trestle—and those of you have—I offer this virtual tour and history of one of the largest wooden railway trestles ever built. Sadly, it’s now one of less than a handful that survive.
