Mistakes we've made: Arbutus rail line is 111 years old

We have three corrections to make for recent articles. 1. Our By the Numbers roundup for the Vancouver Special edition focusing on Arbutus Ridge suggested the rail line that runs along the Arbutus Corridor is 102 years old.

We have three corrections to make for recent articles.

1. Our By the Numbers roundup for the Vancouver Special edition focusing on Arbutus Ridge suggested the rail line that runs along the Arbutus Corridor is 102 years old. It is in fact 111 years old, which means its origins date back to 1902. The story has been corrected.

2. A story about runners jogging that same path contained the same error on the date of the rail line. It also referenced the owner of the line as the Pacific National Railway. The owner is the Canadian Pacific Railway. The story has been corrected.

3. A cutline accompanying a photograph of a York House secondary school swimmer incorrectly identifiied the swimmer as Esther Goh. The swimmer is Grade 10 student Christine Lee. The story, concerning the B.C. high school swimming championships, is being corrected.
