This is missing, sorry.
It was the year 1886, July 4 1886, when the Canadian Pacific Railway made it across Canada to it's western most destination. The passenger train rolled into Port Moody. What a celebration it was.
Today the train station sits a short distance away from it's original location. It is now converted into a museum. a wonderful place to explore local history.

My children love to visit this museum. At various times through the year the old rail car is open for tea.
The letterbox:
This stamp requires a black stamp pad or marker.
It is a very easy find.
Clues.
Walk to the west end of the tracks in front of the museum, just under the shelter. When it was planted there was a handcar on this end of the tracks.
The letterbox is hiding under the tracks towards the side of the museum behind a rock. Right under the tracks. Watch for mugglers, and replace as you found it. Please let us know you found it. A special prize awaits the first finder.
