The Cowichan Historical Society is calling for votes in a national contest for a cash prize to restore the Duncan Train Station
The Cowichan Historical Society is hoping for your support this coming month as it tries to secure a cash prize to restore the Duncan Train Station.
The Duncan Train Station in the city’s downtown was built in 1912 and according to the Cowichan Historical Society, the train was very important for the region. The train station initially was home to the station master’s family while passengers bought tickets on the main floor. Its purpose has changed throughout the years. It’s now home to the Cowichan Valley Museum and serves as a tourist information hub.
But the 3,000-square-foot building has seen better days. It needs some TLC and energy efficiency upgrades. Sometimes the hydro bill is as high as $1,000 during winter months.
