Westbound CP stops at Ignace station for a crew change while it appears a couple of geezers are snoozing the day away out front. What a life!! I was doing a wander in the NorthWest of the province on this trip and still regret misplacing my notes, thus the leader CP 4703 is the only identifiable unit. Nice station. It was designated a railway heritage structure under the provisions of the Railway Station Protection Act as of Feb. 15, 1994.

    ….. and subsequently torn down. Today, only an open patch of gravel occupies the space between north and south mains. Pretty picture Arnold.

    Torn down !!!?? Shocking!! Well, if anyone would know, it would be Mr. DAY. Have you any idea why it was pulled (unsafe?) and when?? What actual depots are left standing between Ignace and the Bay? If any……….

    Upsala is the only surviving station and it sits at a museum just south of Thunder Bay. BTW, the reason for the late reply… looking for some Time Machine photos to match up to yours! =)

    Time Machine? Well, lets get on with it, Lad. I think Upsala is the only other station west of Kakabeka that I did get in Situ.
