St. Thomas CASO Station

St. Thomas CASO Station

The Canada Southern (CASO) Line was built by the Michigan Central Railroad to shortcut the distance from Buffalo (and New York City beyond) to Detroit. Though most of the line is now only visible on satellite photos, many of its artefacts remain, such as the massive CASO railway station in St. Thomas. This included the CASO's Headquarters, which was on the top floor. Today mostly an event space, with some offices, it's been well-preserved and a reminder of how St. Thomas was once the busiest rail hub in Canada.
