Comments on: Just when the new highline CNR Halton sub was finished, so was the old CNR Milton station and the crossing tower seen in the distance. Luckily the station still exists but the tower and small freight shed are long gone. Taken from my fathers collection.

A very historical picture, capturing a wonderful branchline era that was to shortly disappear for ever. Thank you very much for sharing, John

Very nice. The building immediately north of the station was the Signal Maintainer’s Shop which survived into the early 2000’s. I wonder who retrieved the Canadian National Telegraph and Cable Office sign?

I visited this location a few years back, not much left except there are tracks still in place running north from the creek bridge.

Remains of the CPR spur to the screw factory.

Very nice. I see one of those once common CNR “Do Not Trespass” signs on the left.
