Land Gallery

The highs and lows of Saskatchewan land transportation are captured in the exciting Land Gallery. There are over 40 cars and another 16 trucks, from a 1902 Holsman rope drive car that looks more like a buggy, to a Ford Model T, “the car that put America on wheels.” See all sorts of winter travel contraptions, bikes and motorcycles, even a Citroën half-track that made a trip through the British Columbia wilderness in 1934 on the whim of a French-American millionaire, carting much-needed trail supplies like cases of champagne. Be sure to check out Blowtorch the mechanical horse.
