Truro Station
According to the caption on a photo, this station was built in 1959.
The station still remains standing and in use, as seen from this Google Street View
In an email dated January 9, 2012, Andrew Backburn reports that "The Town of Truro Parks and Rec. dept have taken over the building for about 2 years now. The Station yard has been made smaller as the Town covered some of the track area and some of the parking lot with soil and seeded grass. The trail starts in this area also although it still goes up and meets the CN main line."
Even though the town has taken over the station there are still remains of the old line buried in the ground.
