End Notes

  1. Sidings history:
    Date Sidings
    1914-09-27*/1931-04-26 Passing track indicated but capacity not given.
    1934-09-30/1938-04-24 24
    *Capacity of sidings/passing tracks does not appear in GTRS time tables before 1915-06-27.
  2. Other Tracks history:
    Date Other Tracks
    1929-07-28*/1931-04-26 42
    1934-09-30/1938-04-24 10
    1940-09-29/1942-06-28 33
    1943-09-26/1968-10-27 27
    *Capacity of other tracks does not appear in CNR time tables before at least 1926-06-27.
  3. The O-SHO-ME drawing states most likely board-and-batten siding underneath the insulbrick, which is incorrect as photographs before and after the addition of the operators bay show horizontal siding.
