Train Stations
The Irondale Bancroft and Ottawa Railway ran from Howland Junction just north of Kinmount to Bird’s Creek just north of Bancroft. Charles’ Pusey intended for his railroad to go all the way to Ottawa, however time and money were not on his side. Pusey died in 1899.
Enjoy the pictures of the many stations along the way, some were simply unmanned shelters called Flag Stops. Can you find the location on the map?
