Lethbridge station (also known as Union Station) is a former railway station in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. It was built by the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1905-1906 and expanded in 1908 and 1911.[1]
The station was in use until 1971, when the last service, a Dayliner train to Calgary, was discontinued. In 1984, the railyards were relocated to nearby Kipp, and the station building was sold to Alberta Health Services and converted for use as a Community Health Unit.
CPR locomotive 3651 is on static display at the back of the station.
