Located on the west side of the harbour, the former CNR station at Owen Sound was constructed in 1931 by Canadian National Railway replacing the original Grand Trunk Railway station built in 1894. The building currently houses the Owen Sound Visitor Centre and the Community Waterfront Heritage Centre (CWHC) which includes the Marine and Rail Waterfront Museum. Lots of railway memorabilia and a model railway on display. The former station is well maintained.

    Great photo. I’ve been to the Sound a couple of times. Always great to photograph the area….including the old CP station across the bay.
