Nelson and Fort Sheppard Railway information


The Nelson and Fort Sheppard Railway (N&FS) is a historic railway that operated in the West Kootenay region of southern British Columbia. The railway's name derived from a misspelling of Fort Shepherd, a former Hudson's Bay Company fort, on the west bank of the Columbia River immediately north of the border.

The N&FS connected the city of Nelson with the Canada–United States border at Waneta.
