Donations to FVHRS
Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society is a registered charity in Canada.
Time to get on board!
One Passenger at a Time
A donation of $50 makes you a 'passenger on the platform' in the drive to return the BCER Interurban to the original Fraser Valley tracks.
Be one of 30,000 passengers to come on board at $50 each.
A tax receipt will be issued for each donation. You may not wish to travel alone, donate more than one passenger.
You can donate here, online, mail in a cheque, or visit us at one of our many events in 2009 and 2010.
Motorman: Frank Horne
Passenger funds will be used for:
You donation will be used to construct the 600 spur line to connect the car barn to the SRY Raillink mainline at Sullivan. This insures we all get to leave the station.
Although the BCER used an overhead trolley wire, we are not allowed to re-install the power line. We will use Passenger funds to acquire a replica BCER Express baggage car that will contain generators for our power.
The Sullivan car barn is now full with BCER 1225 and BCER 1304 the 'Connaught' car. We will need to enlarge the car barn to provide a save home for the baggage car --- and a future interurban?
Celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Fraser Valley line
The One Passenger at a Time campaign will run through 2010 - the 100th Anniversary of the Fraser Valley line.
A tax receipt will be issued for each donation. To donate now, click on the blue 'Donate Now' button. A tax receipt will be sent to you by e-mail.
You can drop off funds at any FVHRS event, or mail your cheque and a tax receipt will be sent by Canada Post.
Motorman: Vic Sharman
Notice
This campaign is to raise the additional funds necessary to finance the improvements to the car barn and shops, the replica baggage car, connecting track, switches and siding to access the SRY Raillink mainline as well as other items.
Although we will be excited to welcome you aboard car 1225 when it begins running, your support for this campaign should not be construed as a ticket purchase as rides will be by donation.
Conductor Fund
An opportunity to assist with the most important aspect of every day operations. A donation of $20 to $50 would be very helpful.
Engineer Fund
An opportunity to assist in the rehabilitation of BCER 1225 and BCER 1304. There are are still many items that are required to complete the work and ongoing maintenance of the interurban cars. A $20 to $50 donation would make a positive contribution to the work.
Online donations
Our on-line donation partner, CanadaHelps, will be able to receive your donation 24 hours a day. If you prefer to scribe a cheque we are more than happy to receive it via Canada Post at the address below. We have designated two additional funds to allow a range of support for those who wish to target a donation. All donations over $10 will receive a tax receipt.
