In these pictures we see the six parts of Don Station awaiting reassembly and restoration their having been successfully moved to Roundhouse Park. In the upper left photo, we find the turret and roof cap, more popularly known as a “witches’ hat” looking forlorn in the park. In the middle photo, we find the two roof sections waiting beside our TRHC No. 1 locomotive. Finally in the right hand photo we get an “inside” view of the two halves of the Don Station. On the left is the waiting room. On the right is the baggage section and ticket office. The permanent foundation is between the sections, with the turret going on the upper right in the northwest corner, the same alignment the station had in its original location at Queen St.
