Excerpt from Wikipedia:
The community of Parry Sound, Ontario, Canada has two railway stations, both of which are currently in use by Via Rail.
In December 2005, CN and CP implemented a plan to reduce train congestion on their parallel lines in central Ontario through the Parry Sound area. Consequently, westbound trains from both railways use the CP tracks while eastbound trains use the CN tracks. This has resulted in Via Rail using the CPR station for passengers taking the westbound Canadian and using the CNR station for eastbound trains.
The Tudor Revival Canadian National Railway station is located at 70 Church Street. It has been used as the primary stop for Via Rail's Canadian transcontinental passenger train service since the massive Via budget cuts on January 15, 1990.
The historical Station is home to the Parry Sound Area Chamber of Commerce, the MTO, the Park to Park trail association and the snowmobile district offices.
