  • shared facilities with VIA in original GTR/CNR station
  • Was originally called Richmond Hill 1898-9 but was changed to Maple (telegraph MA) after Bala Sub opened in 1906
  • CNR Maple Station closed on August 29th, 1975.
  • Village's original names Noble's Corners or Nobleville after Joseph Noble the first Postmaster
  • GO requested to purchase the 140 year old station and to renovate the station to meet their current needs but would like to own the structure outright before doing so
  • GO would like to rehabilitate Maple station as they did with the former CN Aurora depot. The Maple station was remodelled over 100 years ago and GO wanted to restore the exterior of the station to its turn-of-the-century Grand Trunk Railway appearance - the interior changes to provide for improved ticket sales and the passenger waiting facilities as well as add washrooms and make the station fully accessible to the physically disabled (1993)
