W&AR Halifax Ticket Office

Post by Paul Charland »

Here's a "heritage" shot that was posted to the Nova Scotia Memories Facebook page this morning, I think it originated on the Nova Scotia archives site, it should be in the Wiki.

That shot is well know to me Paul but has never been posted to the wiki.

Which brings up a point about thew W&AR. The way I always dealt with stuff from the W&AR is simply like this:
http://www.dardpi.ca/wiki/index.php?title=W%26AR

I treated it as background info to the D.A.R. itself and never delved into organizing it as a completely separate subject. I suppose because mainly in the early going there was almost nothing anyway to worry about. Years later there is little more to be honest. The question is, is there enough to warrant a complete separate section within the wiki? Personally I think not but as this is not "my" wiki but belongs to everyone here, what does the gallery say?

Would this also extend to the the Western Counties as well?

Hi Steve,

I think if it the heritage of the DAR then it's on topic, but I also understand that there is not enough information about any of the predecessors to warrant devoting another website too. Maybe a page on this website could be created to cover them all in one shot and if in the future more information come along, divide them into each separate railway.

I think the existing structure with a W&AR category is sufficient. It leaves enough room to explore the W&AR as much as we want.

I'm content with the current set up of the W&AR and WCR categories.
