Comments on: Here’s a “sunny side” view of the old Tillsonburg (my back still aches when I hear that word) CPR station. By the early 1980s the railroad no longer had any use for the building, and it sat empty, and very fortunately not vandalized to any degree. In 1992 it was relocated over to Bridge St next to the CN Tillsonburg North station and the two old stations combined to become the Tillsonburg Station Arts Complex. In this image, the building was on the east side of King St just south of Concession St. West. Tillsonburg was a great place for tracks and stations back then.

I can’t travel thru Tillsonburg without thinking of that song. It is in my blood.

You made Stompin’ Tom proud with your reference, and us as well for posting another beautiful station photo! I remember taking a trip here in 1995, and don’t remember the CP station being beside the old GWR station. However, 30 years later and my memory ain’t so grand either! LOL

Thanks for confirming where this station once sat. I know it always looked odd, being ‘trackside’.
