Description
A photograph of a train pulling into the Helen Street / Broadway Street East Station in Paris Ontario. Several people can be seen waiting on the platform. The Helen Street / Broadway Street Station replaced the Paris Junction Station after it was demolished in 1907 after a decrease in rail traffic through Paris. This was due to the creation of a new junction located in Brantford.

This photo and a few others were found in a photo album at the County of Brant Public Library. It is unknown when this photo was taken and by whom.
Notes
The station remained in use until 1968 which would mean that this photograph would have to have been before then.
