whitchurch stouffville library the event was co- sponsored by the library and john lord books stouffville how to see the stouffville canadian national rao- way stution preserved was one question asked of elizabeth willmott last week at whitchurch stouffvillelibrary 1 she was on hand to present a slide program in connection with her book meet me at the station a photo journalism record of old stations around ontario the program was co- sponsored by the library and john lords books stouffville v i do hope well always see it standing right there and well see it restored said miss willmott besides being an author miss willmott has crusaded to save old train stations many of which she believes have architectural and historic importance if a community is really keen about saving a station they will find a way she said jean barkey of the whitchurch stouffville museum board said we v feel the station is worth 150 165000 and wed hate to lose it the board has suggested the station be moved to the town museum site in bogart- town the slide presenta tion included a variety of ways that old stations have been put to use including a private residence a library a senior citizen dropin centre and a museum among other uses miss willmott pointed- out that one- problem connected with using old stations on their current sites is that the train companies are hesitant because of the safety factor children running onto the tracks and so on she suggested that for the stouffville cen- tennial the tradition of a floral arch be revived and an old steam engine chartered in the old days on an important occasion each com- munity would construct an arch of cowers for the train to pass under c rthe train stations in those days usually were builtby carpenters who were given no plans to go by she said and often they put creative wood work into the structure about the stouffville station miss willmott said they had a good time building that one unique feature of the railway line running through stouffville ac cording to miss willmott is that it is one of two narrowgauge tracks in ontario to show that rail ways were not nearly as romantic as wed like to think miss willmott mentioned the water melon special that used to pass through stouff ville in the earliest days benches were nailed to the floor of flat bed cars and passengers sat on them and rode down to toronto eating their
