Sam Roberts headlines CP Rail Holiday Train

The musician and his band were aboard for the the national tour, which ended last night (Tuesday) in Port Coquitlam.

The Sam Roberts Band and musicians Sierra Noble, Kelly Prescott and Port Moody's own Tyson Venegas entertained in Port Moody and Port Coquitlam aboard the CP Rail Holiday Train last night (Tuesday).

The annual train that aims to raise money and goods for food banks across Canada drew hundreds of revellers out, behind the Port Moody recreation complex and at the West Coast Express station in PoCo — the final stop on the national tour, after more than 80 gigs.

Photographers Tracy Riddell and Bryan Ness captured some scenes from the two events, which are published this week by The Tri-City News online and in print.
