The station, though outside the immediate downtown area, is relatively central. The station building is wheelchair accessible. VIA accommodates wheelchair access into the trains provided 48 hours' notice. Towards London, westbound VIA train 85 stops at 13:09 & westbound VIA train 87 stops at 19:55. Towards Toronto, eastbound VIA train 84 stops at 08:40 & eastbound VIA train 88 stops at 21:05.[1] HistoryFrom the fall of 1863, a young Thomas Edison worked as a telegrapher at the Stratford, Ontario station of the Grand Trunk Railroad.[Conot, Robert: Thomas A Edison, A Streak Of Luck, Da Capo Press, p.16] Edison's father was from Canada and fled to US after the Rebellion of 1837. Two structures remain that were built in 1913 by the Grand Trunk Railway (GTR): a two-storey, brick-clad, railway station building, and a one-storey express building linked by an overhead canopy. The GTR merged into the Canadian National Railway in 1920. The station buildings were designated as a Heritage Railway Station in 1993.[2] The station is also designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act since June 13, 1988. The Ontario Heritage Act designation notes that the station is built in the Prairie Style of architecture, influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright.[3] It was erected by the Grand Trunk in 1913 and opened in August 1914. The designation covers the exterior of the whole structure, roof, massonry, windows, original doors and brick platforms (these were covered at the time of the designation in 1988). The building included a tower, that has since been removed.[4] The International Limited was operated jointly by Via Rail and Amtrak between Chicago and Toronto. The service, which had started in 1982, was discontinued in 2004.[5] {{clear left}}References1. ^Via Rail Timetable June 2015: Toronto-London-Sarnia 2. ^{{CRHP|15767| Former Canadian National Railways (VIA Rail) Station |March 2014}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.stratfordcanada.ca/en/livehere/resources/Heritage_Stratford/Designated_Properties/101-Shakespeare-Street-VIA-Rail-Station-Stratford.pdf |title=Address: 101 Shakespeare Street VIA Rail Station |author= |date= |website=.stratfordcanada.ca |publisher= City of Stratford|access-date= March 8, 2018|quote=}} 4. ^{{cite act |title=By-law Number 111-88 of the Corporation of the City of Stratford |trans-title=(Can be read at Stratford City Hall or via email from the City Clerk's office) |type=By-law |number=111-88 |language= |date=June 13, 1988 |article= |articletype= |url= |accessdate=March 10, 2018|page= |ref=}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.trainweb.com/travelogues/mattmelzer/2004d21a.html |title=Final Run of the Amtrak / VIA International |last=Melzer |first=Matt |date=23 April 2004 |work=TrainWeb.org |quote=From 1982, Amtrak and VIA Rail Canada had jointly operated the International train between Chicago and Toronto |accessdate=4 August 2015}} External links{{Commons category-inline|Stratford Via Rail Station}}{{VIA Station|STRF}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Stratford, Ontario Railway Station}}{{Ontario-railstation-stub}} 8 : Via Rail stations in Ontario|Buildings and structures in Stratford, Ontario|Transport in Stratford, Ontario|Grand Trunk Railway stations in Ontario|Designated Heritage Railway Stations in Ontario|Designated heritage properties in Ontario|Former Amtrak stations in Canada|Prairie School architecture |
