B.X.

Connecting Barkerville with the outside world, the ‘B.X.’ stage coaches served ‘Cariboo’ for over 50 years. The terminus was moved from Yale to Ashcroft after the C.P.R. construction destroyed the wagon road through the Fraser Canyon. The red and yellow coaches left Ashcroft at 4:00 A.M., and 4 days and 280 miles later reached the end of the road at Barkerville.

B.X.

Reliant Barkerville au monde extérieur, les diligences du « B.X. » ont desservi le Cariboo pendant plus de 50 ans. Le terminus a été déplacé de Yale à Ashcroft après que la construction du C.P.R. eut détruit la route carrossable du canyon du Fraser. Les diligences rouge et jaune quittaient Ashcroft à 4 h du matin et, 4 jours et 280 milles plus tard, atteignaient le bout de la route, à Barkerville.
