Grand Trunk locomotive 1008, an 8 wheeler 2-6-0 Mogul of the E10a class, was built in 1930 by the Canadian Locomotive Company at Kingston, Ontario. Coach 3474 was retired in August 1957 and soon afterward donated to the Ontario St. Lawrence Development Commission. The train stands on a section of original Grand Trunk Railway track left in place during construction of the St. Lawrence Seaway in the 1950s. The Aultsville Train Station was constructed between 1866 and 1889 for the Grand Trunk Railway Company. Originally located in Aultsville, one of the villages lost to flooding during creation of the St. Lawrence Seaway, the station was later donated to the St. Lawrence Parks Commission and relocated to its present site in the late 1950s.
