The Okanagan Express has reached its final destination here at Penticton. The town is located between Okanagan Lake, the larger lake to the north home of the mythical monster named Ogopogo, and the smaller Skaha Lake to the south. The Okanagan River connects both lakes. The first Kettle Valley passenger train arrived at Penticton in 1915. KVR trackage east and up hill to the famous Myra Canyon Trestles was removed in 1980. Recently a wild fire burned the inside of the abandoned and unstable Adra Tunnel near Naramata on this route.
