Whitby Junction station
[4] The designation by-law applies to the exterior of the station as built in 1903 and also to the boxcar (c. 1929, originally from the London and Port Stanley Railway) located outside the building.Reflecting also an acceptance of the rational and picturesque system of High Victorian design, the internal functions of this low, turreted structure are readily identifiable from the exterior."This station building replaced another (now demolished) structure located on the north side of the tracks, along the Grand Trunk's line between Toronto and Montreal."By this time, abundant supplies of cheap gas, a vastly improved network of highways coupled with the greater flexibility of road transport, consumer preference for the automobile had rendered the station redundant.[7] Police gathering evidence at the scene explained that there was no powder on the victim's clothes, indicating he had been shot from a distance, likely from the station waiting room.
