CN Georgetown, Ontario

The station as it looks on Aug. 17, 2025. It is still used by VIA passengers and in very good shape.
I stopped by Georgetown, Ontario on my way to Muskoka to meet up with one of my kids and family. I had not been to Georgetown since I passed through town when I worked 434-435 almost 20 years ago. A lot has changed since then. The short station track is gone and a three track GO passing tracks and platforms are now in place were the GO trains were once stored. I was there long enough to see a CN wb freight pass by...George Dutka

Looking east towards Toronto and Mac Yard.


This view is looking across from the GO platform north of the station.

Looking west. Not far and just out of the photo is Silver which is the junction with the Guelph Sub. which we called the back way to London. VIA trains through Georgetown uses this route.

The wb is approaching the station. Georgetown is a place were there can be a lot of slack action in the train with a number of dips and grades.


A very clean looking unit was trailing in the consist.
