Auburn Station
Auburn Station
Auburn had a small station with a cinder platform located on the north side of the tracks. The station was built in the 1880s as one of the small village models of the Windsor & Annapolis Second Generation station design. The last station agent was Carrie Saunders, serving from 1942 until 1947 when the station closed. The village became a flag stop and the station stood vacant for ten years. It was bought by Willis Bennett in 1957 and pulled across the road onto a new foundation where it was converted to a family home.[1]
Station billing and accounting number: 185.[2]
