Sir William Mackenzie, the businessman and visionary who was affectionately labelled the ‘Railway King,’ extensively promoted the Canadian Northern Railway. This Railway expansion was the primary driver for the development of hundreds of communities in Western Canada. January 23, 2015 marked the centennial of the ‘Last Spike’ of the Canadian Northern Pacific Railway. The CNoR is significant to the history of Camrose and area. Service to the new rails leading to Camrose began in 1911.

The Railway King is a “story theatre” production made possible with support of the Mackenzie family, Camrose and area actors, costume assistance by ChurchMice Players, and the time and talent of many volunteers arranged by Camrose Heritage Railway Museum & Park. The evening includes piper David Samm and a book signing by author Rae Flemming. It will be presented on the brand new stage of the Pentecostal Church in City Center Camrose on April 17 and 18, with shows beginning at 7 pm. For more information call 780-672-3099.
