Royal Tour 2012

Prince Charles and his wife, Camilla, wrapped up their tour of New Brunswick today with a visit to CFB Gagetown and a heritage walking tour in Saint John.



The royal couple also made a stop at Hazen-White-St. Francis School, where the prince played an impromptu match of hockey with several young children.

It was the second day in the province for the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, as part of Diamond Jubilee celebrations marking the 60th year of Queen Elizabeth's reign.

Their schedule was delayed in the afternoon as the couple greeted long lines of people hoping to chat with them.

The KV camera club field trip was to historic train station in the village of McAdam.
Built in 1900, the CPR railway station was a station/hotel to catering to wealthy passengers changing trains to continue to the resort town of St. Andrews where they would stay at the CPR's hotel The Algonquin. The station was built in the Chateau style and resembles a Scottish castle. It was built of local granite and located at the western end of the wye leading to St. Andrews from the Montreal-Saint John main line. The station was commissioned by legendary CPR President Sir William Van Horne who maintained an exclusive private estate in St. Andrews on Minister's Island. On numerous occasions during Van Horne's influential presidency at the CPR during the 1890s, his private car would pass by the McAdam station on the way from Montreal to his summer retreat at St. Andrews and vice versa, sometimes staying in the station hotel.
