Photograph taken looking west towards a lake. Davies notes that the reason for this visible particular configuration is that the CNR and the CPR yards used to be west of Ellis.

Photograph taken on the outskirts of Kelowna, in an industrial area about 2 miles north of a branch terminal. The turn around point for all 25 speeders was done on a black-topped, little used public grade crossing.
