Caption: The Canadian Pacific West Toronto Station's train board is pictured on July 3rd 1971, showing all scheduled train arrivals and departures at the station. By then, the decline of CP's passenger services resulted in only two trains still using the station at this time: #11/12 "The Canadian" and #337/338, the Toronto-Windsor "Dayliner" RDC run. Today would be #338's last run, and after today only The Canadian would use the station until its takeover by VIA Rail in October 1978.
While the West Toronto Station was demolished in 1982, the train schedule boards had been saved and are now in the hands of the Toronto Railway Historical Association.
