    God…..another station bites the dust. Too bad theres not enough money in the world today to keep these structures and rail service alive. Great old photo….one moment in time never to be captured again.

    A most creative shot Steve. Too bad the Budds are gone (except for Sudbury-White River). They were a mainstay in Atlantic Canada and were even considered to replace the CN Roadcruiser bus (which replaced the Caribou in 1969) under Brian Peckford’s new government in 1979.

    Sorry to hear about the station. I hoped they’d bring it back to life.
