Perseverance

This is a statue of Lord Strathcona who hammered in the last spike to complete thr Trans Continental Railway. As well he helped out financially with the building of the Strathcona Library and the neighborhood of Strathcona on Edmonton's southside is named after him.
More pictures of the Legislative Grounds are in my other two albums.
Amazing statue and capture.

Historic monument. I always hear Gordon Lightfoot's railroad song in my mind when I think of the Trans Continental Railroad. Nice capture.
