Cooper/CNR Shops Stratford

I may be able to get a group into the CNR Shops in Stratford for a legal 'wander round unsupervised'

I was curious how many people would want to join in on this venture?

I would have to know when before I could say I could go....

The real trouble with reality is that there’s no background music.

Most likely it would be on a Saturday morning as I know he's usually around the site then.


As for anything left to see? Yeah I think there is. I spent over 2 hours there last year.

It is the definition of "The shit" If you can, come see it. If you want history before the trip, let me know.

It seemed like a good idea at the time.

I'm up for it... in fact really excited about it, but I'm away on vacation the next two Saturdays. Did you have a specific date in mind?

About a 45 minute drive from Hamilton, so about an hour from Toronto I'd say. Lots of stuff in between too. Woodstock for example.

I'm still working on this. I had a really easy time getting in touch with the owner last year, but this year it's proving more difficult.

I AM still working on it!

I'm also still interested in this trip.

Someone told me that the building is now owned by the city of Stratford, as the owner was found to be guilty of the fire that ravaged the north wing of the structure, which ironically was filled with wooden pallets. Apparently, the owner hired arsonists to start the fire.

I've got no idea if this is true or not, but it's an interesting note. If it's true, I doubt the city will allow anyone legal access

This is most definitely NOT true, If the city owned it, it would be demolished by now. No I know who the owner is, I'm just having a hard time tracking him down to ask permission.
