The Kettle Valley Steam Railway Christmas trains are some of the most popular events of the season and this year, more than 2,200 made the trip.

That turned into a post-Christmas windfall for the Summerland Food Bank, as the railway also encouraged passengers to bring along a donation to help the less fortunate.

All told, that added up to more than 600 pounds of non-perishable foodstuffs along with some cash donations from the passengers.

For your consideration, attached please find a photo of our Business Manager, Tasandra Crozier delivering over 600 pounds of non-perishable foodstuffs, which was collected from donations made by passengers of the Kettle Valley Steam Railway during our Christmas Trains, to the Summerland Food Bank.
