The 1933 edition of CN’s Triangle Route booklet has the same painting of a CN train in Jasper Park that was on the front cover of yesterday’s booklet. Otherwise, however, the text has been mostly rewritten, most of the black-and-white photos have been replaced or at least cropped differently, and the color paintings of totem poles by Langford Kihn and Emily Carr have disappeared.

In place of those color images this booklet has two larger color images, one showing the then-new Cavell Drive in Jasper Park and the other showing the Bulkley Gate on the Bulkley River on the Skeena route from Jasper to Prince Rupert. Cavell Drive, “a twisting, turning 14 kilometre route through sub-alpine forests to the slopes of Mount Edith Cavell,” was built by Canada’s version of the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Depression. Bulkley Gate is a rock formation that looks like it once dammed the river.

The artist who did Bulkley Gate painting is unidentified, but the Cavell Drive painting appears to have been signed “LDK.” I don’t know who that was, but it may have been an artist on CN’s staff.

As with several other CN booklets in that era, the main cover as shown above is actually the back cover. This booklet is from archive.org, which cut the cover in half. I made a new PDF merging it back together, putting it in its correct location, and cleaned up some of the pages.
