North Lake Station

The North Lake Station is a former railway station located near North Lake, Thunder Bay District, Ontario. It lies close to La Verendrye Provincial Park and to the well known Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in the Boundary Waters between Canada and the United States. It was constructed in 1907 as a major station along the Port Arthur, Duluth and Western Railway.
==History==
The history of the North Lake Station dates back to 1892. That year the Port Arthur, Duluth and Western Railway, which began construction in 1889, was nearing completion to its western terminus at Gunflint Lake. A workers camp was located at North Lake, approximately 72 miles from the town of Port Arthur, Ontario.〔Algoma Miner & Weekly Herald January 16, 1892〕 When the railway was completed in 1893, it was decided to locate a station at North Lake, one mile east of the old construction camp. The original station was a log freight shed that measured 26 x40 feet.〔(Port Arthur, Duluth & Western Railway )〕
In 1899 the PAD&W was sold to William Mackenzie and Donald Mann and later became part of Canadian Northern Railway (CNoR). In 1902, CNoR stopped running trains to Gunflint and North Lake became the terminus of the re-christened CNoR-Duluth Extension.〔(Port Arthur, Duluth & Western Railway )〕 In March of 1907 it was announced that a new station would be constructed at Silver Mountain, 39 miles from Port Arthur. Since it was an exact copy of Silver Mountain, it can be assumed that the station at North Lake was replaced the same year.〔Daily Times Journal March 14, 1907〕 The new station was a two-storey structure with an attached freight shed that measured 50 x 25. It also included a wye to allow trains to turn around and reverse direction.〔(Port Arthur, Duluth & Western Railway )〕
In 1919 the bankrupt CNoR was nationalized into the Canadian National Railways (CNR) and the line became known as the CNR-North Lake Sub-Division. North Lake Station remained in service until 1923, when a fire destroyed a trestle at Mackies on Whitefish Lake. Due to a lack of business on this portion of line, CNR decided not to rebuild the burned trestle and shortened the line by 24 miles. The station and its nearby coal bunker were abandoned by CNR.〔(Chronology of the PAD&W Railway )〕
