Leonora and Mt. Sicker Railway

The Leonora and Mt. Sicker Railway was a 15-mile (24 km) mine narrow gauge railway which hauled copper ore from Mount Sicker to tidewater at Crofton on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. It operated from 1903 to 1908. There is at least one good general history of the railway.[1]
