With CPR's recently announcing they are looking to sell Windsor Station, I went looking for old pictures of this old rail hub.

Found the online CPR Archives. I have been looking through it for the last hour and it's great. Only wish they had bigger photos.

Some absolutely great old photos on there! The search function doesn't seem to work for me, though. Anyone else having that problem?

That's awesome!

My girlfriend actually made the cover of the '08 CPR employee calendar. Anyhow, she was saying there's an abandoned building in the CPR yard in toronto that's almost entirely filled with old CP billboards, advertisements, signs and posters....

They tend not to throw anything away until
a)they need the space
b)they have to give someone on light duties something to do other than sit around and pick their nose
