    Subject: This photo of the Royal Canadian Pacific was taken June 4/06 at the location of the Frank Slide, mile 86 of the Crowsnest Sub. In the early morning hours of April 29, 1903, Turtle Mountain collapsed, resulting in the greatest landslide in North American history. In 100 seconds: at least 76 people were buried alive under tons of massive limestone boulders; three-quarters of the homes in Frank were crushed like balsa wood; over a mile of the Canadian Pacific Railroad was completely destroyed; and a river became a lake. A short history of this event can be found at "http://www3.sympatico.ca/goweezer/canada/frank.htm"
