Our BC Road Trip Time Machine videos are produced from 16mm film footage, gathered in 1966. A camera rigged onto the dash of a car took still images every 80 feet or so, and the Highways Department (as we were known then) ran them all together as a single film. To take more nostalgic trips, see Road Trip Time Machine here: tranbc.ca/?s=BC...

Hi David,
Thanks for your vote of support! We are working our way through these treasures and will be sure to share Quesnel area as soon as we find it.
