Lea Boulevard Railway Station

Description

History

This empty railroad station was once a part of the city's now extinct Malton Rail system.

Originally built in the 1920's by Malton Rail, the Lea Boulevard Station was used mainly as a freight hub for the factories of Northern Richmond Hills and Southern Eastonwood and was part of a northern branch of the Great Western line connecting Owsleybank and Starlingtown.

While freight was its main form of traffic, the station also catered to commuter transportation to a lesser extent. Travelers could travel West to Heathman Row Railway Station in Havercroft, Southwest to Bennet Row Railway Station in Lukinswood, Northeast to Hayes Place Railway Station in Eastonwood or hook up with the smaller commuter hub at Bayley Row Railway Station within southeastern Richmond Hills.
