Welcome to the forum Yves, we are happy you are here. Fire away with the questions, there is lots of members here that are more than happy to share what they know with you.
I suspect it was one of my posts on Yahoo Groups Canadian Model Trains that attracted you.
I spent a lot of my younger years about 50 miles from Ponoka, the last 25 years in Southwestern BC.
Cheers
