Blue Bridge Series #2 Sunset on VIA

Rail service was discontinued in March 2011 when corrosion was discovered on the bridge tracks. The VIA Rail "Dayliner" serviced the Western Communities with one daily round trip to Courtney and back.  A distance of 225km.  There are no rails included in the new bridge plan so Esquimalt Station is now the end of the line.  The rail bridge was dismantled in 2012.
