Gare de Larchwood
Latitude: 46.34.20 N
Longitude: 81.17.53 W
Mile 94.7 CPR Cartier Subdivision
Larchwood Station est à l’origine un petit village situé le long de la voie ferrée au nord de Chelmsford, en Ontario. La gare était située à environ un mille de la voie ferrée, à l’est de la route 144. Le point milliaire de la gare est le point 94,7 de la subdivision Cartier.
Une église catholique et une école publique se trouvent à quelques pas de la gare. De l’autre côté de la rue de l’église se trouve un magasin général. L’église a brûlé dans les années 1960.
La famille Byrnes, la famille Self, la famille Savage et la famille Book comptent parmi les premiers colons de la région (vers 1910 et avant). Certaines familles vivaient dans d’anciens poulaillers qui avaient été transformés en habitation.
Avant les années 1970, la route 144 traversait la voie ferrée à un passage à niveau. Aujourd’hui, c’est un viaduc qui permet aux automobilistes d’enjamber les voies ferrées. À l’est de la route, le long de la voie ferrée, on peut voir l’ancienne plate-forme. Le village était situé le long de ce qui est aujourd’hui connu sous le nom de Pilon Crescent. Lorsque le Pilon Crescent passe au pied du viaduc, on peut voir les fondations de l’ancienne église et de la maison Savage.
Larchwood Station
Latitude: 46.34.20 N
Longitude: 81.17.53 W
Mile 94.7 CPR Cartier Subdivision
Larchwood Station began as a small settlement along the railway line north of Chelmsford, Ontario. The train station was located approximately one mile down the tracks east of highway 144. The milepost for the station was Mile 94.7 Cartier Subdivision.
A Catholic Church and public school were located within walking distance of the station. Across the street from the church stood a general store. The church burned down during the 1960’s.
Some of the early settlers to the area (approx. 1910 and earlier) were the Byrnes family, Self family, Savage family and the Book family. Some families lived in former chicken shacks which had been converted for living use.
Before the 1970’s, highway 144 crossed the railway tracks at a level crossing. Today you will find that an overpass takes drivers over the tracks. East of the highway, along the tracks, the old track bed can be seen. The settlement was located along what is known today as Pilon Crescent. As Pilon Crescent goes by the base of the overpass, the foundations of the former church and the Savage house can be seen.
