Brockville station upgrades

[tim_hayman-FFYn/[e-mail] [Canadian-Passenger-Rail]]

The Brockville station renovation is in full swing (at last). I was through there last week, and took a few photos of the station under construction. Note that the old CN building has been torn down, and a new shelter has been put up for passengers waiting for eastbound trains. The station is still open, though only accessible by the back side.

Amazing what was lurking under that siding - station name even visible on brick. New cage, er, passenger shelter is the same size as my bus shelter!
