In 1975, The St. Andrews Kiwanis Club purchased the Old CPR Station (shown above) and moved it a mile around Passamaquoddy Point to its present location.

We scanned some old pictures we found in an album that document the Station's journey to her present location and included them below:

The Building was sold to Kiwanis and moved to its present location (on Water Street) on skids where a new foundation had been prepared.
