Lake Louise Train Station

May 19th, 2024

We were picked up at our hotel and taken to the Lake Louise Train station where we had coffee while we waited for our train. The train station is worth stopping at if you are in the area, it is filled with antiques and old pictures and also serves as a restaurant.   The dining options in Lake Louise were somewhat limited, had i known this was also a restaurant, I probably would have dined there.

The train station was built in 1909 and recently restored.  I found myself imagining what it would have been like to travel before we had jets and highways.  As I looked at the antique Dictaphones and typewriters, I wondered how many young people would know what these were.  I overheard someone say on how they had to take typing in high school and how much they hated it.

Knowing that Lake Louise was the playground for the rich and famous, I wondered which dignitaries and Hollywood stars passed through these walls.
