photo by a t brown if you never saw it you would of course know that the above picture from the a t brown col ection is one of the grand trunk station in actoh the date is recorded as 1905 nearly fifty years ago it will be noted the oil lamps were still on the side of the building and its quite likely that harry holmes sr was the station master and samuel laird the baggage man the porch at the left was the entrance to the station office the waiting rooms were just to the right of the picture and the baggage room was at the extreme right the picture doesn t in elude the water tank that stood along the right of way just north of the station the location of the tank was very handy for the trainmen who replenished the water supply while the train was stopped at the station the passengers were given second consideration the ailing pipe dripped copiously over the sidewalk and it was best to walk around rather thai beneath in winter a pile of ice formed between the tracks and the tank but we never recall anyone collecting damages fo- injuries sustained on the danger ous condition let s recall the interior of the old station there was the usun big pot bellied stove in the centre that threw out a roaring beat and the couple of oil lamps that hung from the celling and two more that were beside the ticket window the benches were along the walls and of he hardest yac lety many a time they were well occupied because travel by rail was about the only method of getting around in winter the trains were delayed in heavy snowstorms and the friends who came were usually met at the train when the present station was in the course of erection a fire broke out in the oil shed at the rear and the old building was badly damaged sufficient of tht building was saved however so that business could be carried on until the newer building was completed maybe many of our readers will recall the excursions and the crowded platforms at holiday time and the walk that was popu lar in the summer evenings to see the train come in there were the home comings and the home leavings and the tragedies too that were connected with the old station perhaps some -f-yotiwh- re call the accident when a d runic slipped under the wheels of the train and had a leg severed and the emergency operation was pertformed in the old baggage room then others may recall the suicide of an acton resident who had his head severed by the wheels of the early morning train above is the old station make your own recollection and w haven t a doubt but that the will multiply many times ours feature
