CNR - Stations - Designating Numbers (Jul 24/Jul 27)

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS:
This reference book of Canadian National Railways stations (effective July 1, 1924, revised July 1, 1927) has been generously contributed to this website by Ralph Beaumont. This book was donated to Ralph by Mr. Art Downing, son of Archibald Mariner Downing, whose name and “ex libris” stamp appear on the inside of the cover.

Mr. Downing Sr., a trainman, and his father (Archibald Tupper Downing, a conductor) and uncles participated in the operation of the branch line "Salisbury & Albert Railway" which ran a daily train service in Albert County N.B. - a real family affair. Mr. Downing Sr. took great pride in a unique complete set of railway union membership pins, one for each 5 years of membership through to age 65, that was donated to the New Brunswick Railway Museum [yes you have guessed it, right in Hillsborough in Albert County, N.B.], some years ago.
