No longer in use for passengers, the CPR station at Goderich stands at the end of the line overlooking the shores of Lake Huron.  These rails will see their last train in just over a decade on December 16, 1988.  Today, all rails are gone, but the station has been relocated across the former yard closer to the lake, now serving as the Beach Street Station restaurant.Dan or Don Dover Photo, Jacob Patterson Collection Slide. Dan and Don were father and son railfans (publishers of Extra 2200 South magazine) whose photos have been amalgamated as the Dover Collection.

  1. Neat scene.

  2. We were there this summer. The station has indeed moved and is closer to the lake. There is a really nice park,a sand beach and wooden boardwalk. And the sunsets are great. The rail line is now the G to G trail (Guelph to Goderich)
