The eastern terminus of The Ocean — and of VIA Rail's whole passenger network: a large Beaux-Arts station built 1928–30 as part of a hotel-and-station complex with the Hotel Nova Scotian, beside Cornwallis Park. Protected as a Heritage Railway Station of Canada since 1991, and still very much a working station.
