Paradise Station
Paradise began with a standard small Windsor & Annapolis Railway, 40' x 22' along with a 200' x 12' passenger platform.[1] It later received a standard CPR branch line station with a stucco covering. After the DAR closed its stations in smaller villages, the station became building an egg-sorting station for the egg farm of Ronnie Brinton.[2] Paradise remained a flag stop until June 1980.[3]
