Railway Police

Last updated on January 24, 2019

The Canadian National Railway and the Canadian Pacific Railway have their own police forces in British Columbia. They protect the property and personnel of the railways, and increase public safety and border security. Railway police officers work under the federal Railway Safety Act. They have the same powers of arrest as other police officers in Canada.
