List of designated heritage railway stations of Canada

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

During the 1960s, a push to demolish Toronto Union Station led to a public backlash and designation of the station as a National Historic Site.[1]

This is a list of railway stations in Canada which have been designated under the Heritage Railway Stations Protection Act. The names given for stations are taken from the Directory of Designated Heritage Railway Stations maintained by the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada,[2] and may not be the same as those used by particular transport agencies.
