Block; ' First T'rain In Is Recalled
(By Mrs. Wes. Braddock)
AUBURN, June 2• --Once a busy
spot in this community; the G.P.R.
Station here is now awaiting a
buyer who will remove the build-
.ing +from . its--pr..esent site.
The -changing transportation pic-
ture recalls 'that ,at one time the.
'C.P.A. brought many passengers,
freight, express and the RWyal Mail

ment to outside points: There were -
stack yards, too, and 'livestock buy-
ers were busy almost every morn-
ing shipping animals to city stock
yards. The late 0. E. Erratt ship-
ped cattle and hogs three days a
week and Watson Bros., of 'Blyth,
on tlW ltkie T days.. The Weigh=
master for many, years was the
late Charles Straughan. For.many
yea'rs the weigh'scales were owned
by the district farmers and a Tow
years ago were sold to • local coal
dealers.
,In 1888 a delegation from Au-
burn attended a meeting at Lis-
towel to urge that the conternfrlat-
ed Guelph-Goderich (;•1'.R. line
',pass through Auburn.. Work on
the line was begun about 19,)3.
Ln the fail of 19G17 the first train
came into Aul'urn and caused great
excitement. .Maiiy of the village's
older residents ,recall rushing to
.the station to see the first train
come in.
Firt freight in was a load of
salt for the late W. R. Riddell
Many loads of lumber and wopden
Palters, the product of a Saw mill
here, were shipped out ih bygone

Time marches on and with it
come changes. The Royal Mail,

twice a day from Blyth where it
is brought' f b oilier 'points by
