[@thatplace1]

Great mural Wonderful history for old Strathcona with the rail yard Back in the day both steam and bridge engineering marvels I have some funny memories of Stanley cup Thanks for the tour Donna Cheers 🤠👍

[@DonnaTaibossigai]

Thanks so much! It was fun exploring the area after not seeing it for a few years. It is pretty incredible how the railroads were built across North America, especially when you consider how long it takes to drive.

[@Packsalot]

Well done your video and history of the area. Super cool to see the old rail line and bridge pictures. The Stanley Cup monument was neat. Lots of neat stuff on your tour of the area. Speaking of Iron Horses, we took one from Skagway to Fraser Canada recently. Awesome they offer rides here too. Fun stuff. Have a wonderful day.

It has definitely changed in the past few years. And it made me realize how little we've been there recently.

Another lovely video Donna. I liked seeing the old buildings there in Strathcona and the railway tracks too. The architecture on the school was lovely to see. The Stanley Cup is amazing. Take care, Paul

[@hikingoutdoorfamily]

Enjoyed seeing this area. I just love the way they constructed buildings back in the day. The level of detail is always impressive. I liked that beautiful sign for the area with the trains and industry on it too. I also liked how you closed the video with the shot looking down on the rail tracks.

[@MillersRailfan]

Don’t worry about calling the Orr - err Stanley Cup the Oilers Cup at all Donna Wayne will always be remembered as truly one of the greatest hockey players ever

[@DonnaTaibossigai]

Lmao! Very true, Wayne was amazing to watch, even for a kid who wasn't that interested in hockey.

[@AlphaTraveler1]

[@DonnaTaibossigai]

Thank you so much! It was enjoyable visiting this area after several years.

[@JenniferLupine]

Great walk around Old Strathcona, thanks Donna! We haven’t visited Edmonton or this area before! Cool murals! Interesting to see the train station, and it’s neighborhood, and hear about how the buildings have had a variety of uses over the years. Sure would be fun to ride the streetcars! 👌👍👍 Happy first day of August!

[@gotowinaprostedanie]

[@DonnaTaibossigai]

Thank you so much! It is greatly appreciated.

[@chortkoffandriggio]

Thank you! I love this stuff. I have to see Canada someday.

[@DonnaTaibossigai]

It's definitely worth a trip, even if just to places like Vancouver and Toronto. Of course, I'm a little biased for Alberta. Cheers, eh!

[@blendedtravels]

I have never been to Edmonton, but the Strathcona District does look nice. Neat to see the replica of the Stanley Cup with Wayne Gretzy's name on it. There is a lot of neat looking old buildings there. Love the old train station and the farmer's market building. I enjoyed the tour. 😊👍

[@DineshGohil]

Ah ha another Beautiful video with beautiful places to explore, Loved those old buildings and architectured and designed,I'm sure it must be having great history and importance,was how beautiful it must be back on those days,over the years things must have been maintained so well, great video, Thanks a lot for bringing another Awesome place and Beautiful video 😊

[@NBNatureTrailvan]

Fascinating place and history Donna. I’m sort of assuming it was named after Strathconan in Scotland Love the architecture and the wall art - that Swan at the start is wonderful and the entry arch very beautiful. The town felt like you were in an old Scottish town. Have brilliant weekend Donna

[@DonnaTaibossigai]

Hi Dave & Sue! I think it was named after Donald A. Smith/Lord Strathcona who came over from Scotland and had a long history in Canada's railway and businesses, including co-founding the Cdn Pacific Railway. I'm glad I was able to film the place well enough to capture the history. Hope you two have a wonderful weekend.
