- Notes
- The Whitby junction Station was built at the foot of Byron Street on the Grand Trunk Railway in 1903. It closed in 1969 and in 1970 it was moved to the north-east corner of Victoria and Henry Streets for use as an art gallery. The station was used as a dropping off point for patients of the Military Hospital, now Whitby Mental Health Centre. In 2004 the Station Gallery was moved across the road to Whitby Iroquois Park.
