RCMP say they are working with Canadian Pacific Kansas City railway police on the case. 

TransLink said service to its West Coast Express trains was temporarily delayed because of the death. 

Trains were travelling as far as the Coquitlam Central Station and passengers were put on buses linking to the train stops, but service resumed again shortly after 4 p.m. on Friday.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Feb. 27, 2026.
