The All-Red Line, Bamfield BC, Canada

Bamfield is a small coastal community on the west coast of Vancouver Island in British Columbia. It was home to a telegraph station along what was known as the All-Red Line: a network of telegraph cables that circled the globe, connecting the British empire.  An undersea telegraph cable connected Bamfield to Fanning Island in the Pacific (Kiribati).
