Sooyoos Lake Line

The Sooyoos Lake Line is a 7.5 mile railway line of the Washington & British Columbia Railway (W&BC) running from Sooyoos, British Columbia on BC Rail's Okanagan Line to Orovilla, Washington on the Similkameen Line, where there is also an indirect connection via Oroville Junction on the Similkameen Line to the Burlington Northern & Gulf Railroad's Oroville–Wenatchee line.

The Sooyoos Lake Line is Line 441 of the Similkameen Region of the W&BC.

= History = In order to facilitate the movement of goods between BC's industrial areas in the Okanagan and the United States during the Second World War, it was decided to create a straight-line link between Kelowna and the US. With the BCR's Okanagan Line running as far south as Haynes, only ten miles north of Sooyoos, and Oroville on the W&BC's Similkameen Line only 7.5 miles south of it, no debate was needed to determine the route. Work began at both ends at 9:00 am on 19 April 1943, and the first train from Oroville met the first train from Haynes at Sooyoos at 4:43 pm on the 2 March - only thirteen days later.
