Text of the plaque:
This tablet commemorates those in the service of the Canadian Pacific Railway company who at the call of King and Country left all that was dear to them, endured hardship, faced danger and finally passed out of sight of men by the path of duty and self sacrifice, giving up their own lives that other might live in freedom. Let those who come after see to it that their names be not forgotten.
