  • Bright Nights Train cancelled

Vancouver's parks board says its popular Bright Nights Stanley Park Train will not return for the rest of the holiday season.

It says in a news release that operations were stopped last week after exhaust from one of the train’s locomotives caused a driver to get sick. 

The board says staff have been working to find a solution but safety is paramount.

It says staff will be reaching out to people who booked reservations to inform them of the cancellation and issue refunds.
