Memories of Annapolis Royal

I have shots of those framed timetables. I'll upload them sometime.

I actually wrote Jane Nicolson after Fred posted the news item:

Mr. Meredith, thank you so much for your kind words, and for the inclusion of your photos of the station in past days, some of which were new to me.

The repairs to the windows were effected yesterday, the police have dusted for prints, the entry door has been repositioned and my stolen CP timetable cover picture was found uptown on somebody's lawn. It is damaged but not so badly that it cannot be rehabilitated. Thankfully no further damage was done. This was bored children who, sadly, will likely continue to target buidlings and homes in the area until they end up in a place with bars on the window.

Thank you again getting in touch. The station is much loved in the area and very pretty today in the sunshine. If you have not seen the before and after pictures of the project on my website, I have included the link below for your interest.
