Brampton - Station Hotel?
This building was across the street from the site of the CPR Brampton Station. Most towns that had a station had a hotel close by. The CPR had it's own station in Brampton. This could have been the hotel.

Brampton Diamond 1
This was the location of a tower when the CPR crossed the CNR . With the increase in traffic on the CNR when this line was upgraded to handle traffic to the new MacMillan Yard the crossing was automated. In the background is the old Dominion Skate building. Picture taken circa 2001
