Photograph depicts Beaver Trucking located on Kamloops Indian Reserve No. 1 on Tk'emlups te Secwepemc territory, Kamloops, BC. It had been a company since 1990 and received 2 or 3 boxcars weekly loaded with items from Toronto that were then delivered around town. Davies later noted that the business was destroyed by arson in 1997.

The building of this spur in 1977 was a late and short lived attempt to move yearling cattle to Ontario for fattening by rail. The Last stock train ran in 1985. The CN rail track was still in use in August 1998. This photograph shows the spur running east and down grade to a stockyard owned by BC Interior Cattlemen's Association.
