Southern Railway of British Columbia

With over a century tradition of providing the best possible service, SRY is a major transporter of freight in British Columbia's Lower Mainland, and Fraser Valley. Almost one-half of the traffic we handle originates or terminates on Annacis Island, where major automobile and forest product distribution facilities are located. SRY’s diverse customer base includes over 150 shippers of forest, building, agricultural, chemical, consumer and steel products. SRY handles over 70,000 carloads annually and owns over 125 miles of track, of which 62 miles are mainline, and interchanges with four North American Class I railroads at six locations. We are “always the best” in personalized, market driven, customer oriented and neutral shortline service. Combined with our long-haul partners: Canadian Pacific Railway, CN, BNSF, and Union Pacific SRY has connections to all rail-served points in North America. In addition to maintaining its own fleet of 29 locomotives, SRY’s locomotive and car shops provide repair services to both Canadian and U.S. customers. SRY provides specialty railcars to customers and currently has over 2,000 cars in its fleet. It is part of the Rail Link System of the Washington Companies.
