Win up to $10,000! The Fort Edmonton Foundation is excited to share our AUGUST 50/50 fundraiser in support of Fort Edmonton Park’s expansion project.
Fort Edmonton Park is currently renovating and expanding to create a world-class, internationally acclaimed living history experience that preserves Edmonton’s past and creates stories for the future. Construction began in 2018 and the park will re-open in 2021 with a brand new Indigenous Peoples Experience, expansion of the 1920's-style Midway, a new front entry plaza and guest services area, a new steam train maintenance facility and expansion of the Hotel Selkirk.
Support the Iconic Train at Fort Edmonton Park!
The EY&P Locomotive #107 historical steam train was recently moved to a brand new, structurally sound maintenance facility at the Park where it is currently being prepared to fire up when the park reopens!
As one of the most popular attractions at the park, the 1919 Baldwin locomotive steam engine is a true relic of the past. It was built in Pennsylvania by Baldwin Locomotive Work and represents the style of steam engine originally used on the Edmonton Yukon and Pacific Railway. Fort Edmonton Park also features several historical railway coaches built between 1899 and 1914, and even has a caboose that is wheelchair accessible.
When the steam whistle blows in 2021, we look forward to welcoming you for a ride! Please buy tickets to support the final phase of this exciting project in Edmonton. With your support, Canada's largest living history museum will reopen right here in Edmonton and millions of visitors will once again take ride through history!
