最後一根釘紀念碑 LAST SPIKE
由華工興建的太平洋鐵路東西鐵路在1885年完工，長3000英哩的鐵路由東西兩邊同時舖設，到此正好接軌。太平洋鐵路公司董事長史提夫用黃金製造的釘子釘在鐵路上，被稱為"最後一根釘"。1985年，加拿大政府在這裏修建了一個紀念碑，紀念100年前這條鐵路連接了太平洋和大西洋。response / report this review -

I've driven by Craigellachie almost every summer for all my 23 years of my life, but we rarely stop there. There's not a lot to do besides look at the train tracks.
But.
On a recent road trip with my sister, we decided to stop by just for fun. There's a spot in front of the Gift Shop where you can pretend to nail in the last spike. The lady running the gift shop - unfortunately I did not get her name - came out and let us know that she has some costumes and things that we can borrow to make our pictures more authentic!! She helped us put on the coats - the one I wore belonged to her grandmother - as well as top hats and beards. She told us she made the beards herself out of old stuffed animals! Once we were all dressed up she took photos of us for us.
I just want to say that she was a very sweet, kind lady who really made our visit special. I cannot emphasize that enough. She turned a roadside stop into a really great experience for us, and she was just incredibly, genuinely nice. Thank you, kind lady!response / report this review -

Really great place to pull over and stretch your legs. Neat reading on a historical event as well.

Very cool to see the 3 sets of reason tracks that they have displayed. Groundskeeper was very informative and friendly.
