Interesting indeed! The depot was built in 1912, so I'm guessing those
bricks were probably laid at that time or shortly thereafter. I grabbed a
couple of them myself, but I'm considering going back and grabbing a dozen
to make stepping stones around the pond. So far, they're just in a pile,
and there are at least that many left still in the ground.
Granted, they're on CN property, so I'll have to be careful...
