Name[edit]

There's an older Mission CPR station, which was a heritage building though maybe damaged by fire and unused as a cultural facility, which it had been converted into, a couple of blocks west on Railway Avenue; apparently there's also Mission Harbour railway station, which I'd never heard of before and is by "the harbour". Not sure how this one would be disambiguated...but it also strikes me that there might be stations in Cailfornia or Texas or elsewhere with the same name which do not yet have articles....Skookum1 (talk) 16:23, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

older, original station[edit]

As per my previous comments, there's issues with this title which should specify the West Coast Express; the station was originally Mission Junction station then Mission City station, then "Mission station". Mission CPR station might be the best title for the needed article on the original station; see this writeup about it from the Mission Museum website; I remember my Mom who was city councillor being quite dissed at Translink for refusing to use the old station, which a lot of people had worked to restore and fund; for lack-of-parking and no-room-for-bus-stops reasons it seems.Skookum1 (talk) 05:51, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This article is clearly about the West Coast Express station. I don't understand the problem. Do you intend to have another article about the historic station or do you wish to add the information here? Where is the old station? Has it been moved?

I found some information. It no longer exists. The building burnt down in 1994. http://www.heritage-places.com/profiles/CPRStation.html It probably only requires a paragraph added to the article, with whatever redirect you feel is appropriate. Secondarywaltz (talk) 06:42, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
