Falmouth Fruit Company Warehouse
Falmouth Fruit Company Warehouse
Mile 33.19 from Windsor Junction on the Halifax Subdivision[1]
History
E.E. Thompson built a brick fruit warehouse at Falmouth in 1906, across from the Falmouth Station. It was later joined together with a large new brick tile warehouse built by the Falmouth Fruit Company and served by a spur at mile 33.19. After the decline of the apple export industry, the warehouse was used for a variety of commercial and storage uses and remains a prominent surviving railway landmark easily spotted from the Highway 101 at Falmouth.
