Old Train Station Tourist Centre   Visitor's Information Centre     We must recall that the event that sparked Saint Quentin’s founding was the construction of the railway, which was completed in 1910 following six years of labour.  In 1911, a station master was appointed in the person of Mr. Philias Arseneault.  The new colony was originally called Anderson, after the foreman in charge of the work on both the railway line and the train station – its name being changed to Saint Quentin in 1919.  In short, we can affirm that Saint Quentin’s early days were heavily shaped by the railway line and station, hence the importance of rebuilding the latter, which symbolizes to a great extent the history of Saint Quentin.   The Old Train Station The Old Train Station Tourist Centre      The Old Train Station Tourist Centre, a replica of the old train station built in 1920 and destroyed in the autumn of 1983, officially opened on June 19, 2005.  As well as the Visitor Information Centre, this heritage building houses the offices of the Saint Quentin Chamber of Commerce and of the Western Festival, an exhibition hall, a conference room, an interpretation centre for the forestry, agriculture and maple industries, and a gift shop.   While the building’s old-world character is carefully respected, its infrastructure includes all the modern services that we expect today.   Once inside, one cannot help but be impressed by the beauty and lavishness of the wood that is omnipresent throughout the building.  The decoration and furnishings recall the early 20th century and the walls abound with photos relating to Saint Quentin’s history.  A museum in itself - it is not be missed!     To contact us : Old Train Station Tourist Centre 144 A, Canada Street Saint-Quentin, NB, E8A 1G7 Telephone : 506-235-3282 / 1-888-666-2425 Fax : 506-235-9801 Email
