| History | Dalmeny was a 'whistle stop' for passenger and freight steamers heading to or coming from Edmonton along the secondary main line that ran through Saskatoon. According to the CNR Archives the first railway Station Agent posted here was from Dalmeny in Scotland. Hence the name. The agent was the person instrumental in having the 'whistle stop' named 'Dalmeny'.
| | Attractions | People move to Dalmeny because of the residential character - clean, quiet, safe. It is close enough to Saskatoon for work and amenities, but far enough away for quality. Dalmeny has K-12 schools, business services, paved streets, and a community spirit. It is attracting younger couples (under age 40) who have children, are highly skilled and employed, and are progressive.
