Alcona

Zarn Station Alcona Station Superior Junction

Alcona Station was located near Sioux Lookout, ON at Milepost 185.2/127.7/186.2/156.3/156.1.

Even though it was the last real station on the line, Alcona had the distinction of being one of the two “A” named stations since the pattern had to be restarted after Zarn (the other being Alba). In 1911 a GTP Type “E” station was constructed here and between 1916 and 1918 so was a water tank. In 1923 the tank was shifted further east to Zarn, while the station building was sold in 1960.

While its siding was removed from use between 1986 and 1988, Alcona remained on the line until it was abandoned in 1994.
