We visited Canmore on our way home from Edmonton. I read about Antique Underground Coal Train at Large Roadside Attractions of Canada. We drove right by it on our way into Canmore.
Canmore for almost a century was one of the most important coal mining centres in southern Alberta. The town flourished and grew to over 3,000 pioneering miners and their families. When Canmore Mines Ltd. ceased coal production on July 13, 1979, Canmore was the last coal mining centre in the Bow Valley to permanently shut its doors.
