As part of our vision to bring back a heritage rail experience, we are gathering resources to replicate a BCER station. What we are interested in finding are construction drawings or pictures of "CPR Old Style Brackets" (see attachment) and any pictures or construction drawings of "CPR Standard Doors and Windows. (see attachment). If you can help it would be appreciated.

Not much by way of help, but a group in Greenville Junc't., Maine is trying to get their abandoned CPR station, complete with a "witches hat style" peaked roof rebuilt.

The Canadian Pacific Historical Association has done a really good job of scanning CPR Way and Structure drawings. Go to:

http://www.cptracks.ca/cpsig/index.html

Click the Documents Library button and see if there is anything useful there. If nothing there, go back to the home page, and pick Discussion Group from the menu on the left, join, and ask. The gentleman who moderates the discussion group, Jeff Pinchbeck, is also very involved the the document scanning project, and often has a good idea what is still waiting to be scanned.

Good luck

Thank you! That link you supplied was extremely helpful.

Try contacting the Brampton (Ontario) Historical Society. They recently restored the former CPR station there which looks very similar to what you just posted.... http://www.flickr.com/photos/heritagecanadafoundation/ and http://www.bramptonhistoricalsociety.com/cprstation.htm
