Welcome To Vulcan, Alberta

 

In 1915 a surveyor for the Canadian Pacific Railway chose a name for an area in Alberta, Canada. The place must have reminded him of the gods of Roman mythology as he chose the name Vulcan, after the god of fire. He had no idea the favour he was doing for the future generations of the town that would spring up around the railroad.
