Warman station


The Warman station is a former railway station in Warman, Saskatchewan. It was built by the Canadian Northern Railway along the east-west Canadian Northern Railway line at the intersection with the Canadian Pacific Railway north–south line. The -storey, stucco-clad, wood-frame train station, was originally located at the intersection of two railway lines. The station building was moved to its current location in 1942 when its use as a station was discontinued; the building is now used as a seniors drop in centre. The building was designated a Municipal Heritage Property in 2004.
The original name of the town was Diamond, because the crossing of the two railway lines created a diamond shape. Soon the name of the town site was changed to Warman, named after Cy Warman, a journalist who followed and recorded the construction of the Canadian National Railway.
