Hope and Boston Bar RCMP are seeking the public’s assistance with their investigation into an attempt to derail a train. On October 22, 2023 at 3:18 AM an individual placed a vice clamp on a section of the train tracks near the old Alexandria Bridge in Spuzzum, BC.

Police are asking for anyone to come forward who may have driven through the area between 2:30 AM and 3:15 AM on October 22, 2023 and have dash camera footage or anyone who may have information regarding this incident to contact the Hope RCMP at 604-869-7750 or if you wish to remain anonymous please call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

It is very concerning when someone goes to this extreme to cause a catastrophic event that puts the train staff and the local community at risk of harm, says Sgt. Mike Sargent of the Hope RCMP.
