Abandon
The station was constructed in 1886 by Great Western Railway. In 1979, VIA Rail took over train operations on the line and abandoned the station in favour of the white wooden frame shelter in the background. The Town of Ingersoll wants CN to either repair or demolish its former train station.
The run down building is on federally owned land and therefore the municipality has no jurisdiction over it. Due to the style of the building and it's decaying condition they most likely will just level the building instead of trying to restore or move it.

Waterfalls
The first settlers arrived in St. Marys in the early 1840's, attracted by the area's natural resources. At the new town site, the Thames River (Canada) cascaded over a series of limestone ledges, providing the power to run the first pioneer mills and giving the community an early nickname: Little Falls.
