Shot during the 1978 TTC strike, VIA train 632 from Union to Stouffville slows for a stop at Markham's 1871-built station. Originally a Toronto & Nipissing Railway structure, it has served passenger operations for the Midland Railway, GTR, CNR, VIA Rail, and presently GO Transit. See Isaac Bryson's recent night shot here, 46 years later. The station and main track remain, with everything else removed. Scan and editing by Jacob Patterson.
