VIA #10 slows for a stop for a couple of passengers to board as well as a couple to detrain at the old CP station which was once a popular stop. This building still exists, by what seems like a miracle, as it was closed for many years and at the mercy of the elements and the vandals. But it survived, and is now home to an attractive Art Gallery. And has been remodeled inside out. Photo ops here now are tight, there is a wrought iron fence protecting visitors from the trains; there is no more siding nor yard with just the mainline now to be seen. Back in the 70s & 80s it was a great place to hang out, even in the rain ! Power on this Toronto bound train today is VIA 6513 and 6624.
