Our mission remains:
"Capturing History — Building Community"

The Canadian Northern (Meeting Creek) Historical Society – operating as the Canadian Northern Society - has been active in preservation of a collection of heritage railway stations and associated property and artifacts since 1987.

We are a volunteer-driven organization; reliant upon our
members, executive, and communities for support. We are very proud of the award-winning preservation efforts undertaken through the years, as an example our Meeting Creek Heritage Railway station site
has been described as “the most authentic preservation of a grain elevator, railway station, and
station grounds – complete with an original section of the
Canadian Northern Railway – anywhere in Canada.

The CNoS is administered by a volunteer board and has 2 part-time staff helping
with administration and maintenance.

The flora and fauna change with the seasons, come often and enjoy!
The Meeting Creek railway station was built by the Canadian Northern Railway in 1913 to its standard third-class station plan. Today it represents one of the few remaining examples of this design, and is unique in Alberta, being preserved on its original site with both a portion of the original railway together with a classic prairie grain elevator. The station has been wonderfully preserved and houses photographs and artifacts pertaining to life in the prairie railway depot.
