Stettler, Alberta is straight east of Red Deer on Hwy 12. Alberta Prairie's station and passenger loading area is located at 4611- 47 Avenue in Stettler AB which is in the south-east part of town. Head for the only burgundy-coloured grain elevator and you will end up right at the station.
Went as part of a large group and had a great day. Beautiful scenery and fun music and a delicious meal in Big Valley to cap it off. Good for people with mobility issues as there are carts from the train to the community hall, where the dinner is, and also to various sites in town. My only quibble is plastic utensils, cutting thru the beef took a bit of work. Lots of history for those inclined.
