Fun Facts

Why build a “fancy” train station in rural Annapolis Royal? It was to impress and encourage the tourists getting off the Dominion Atlantic Railway (DAR) trains and ferries — coming to visit old Fort Anne, or stay the summer at Milford House or fish and canoe at Kejimkujik. The new station was, in other words, part of the DAR’s marketing plan, and it was built to be beautiful.
