About the Pacific Central Station
Pacific Central Station, in Vancouver, British Columbia, is a railway terminus. Via Rail's The Canadian runs cross-country to Toronto, and this is its western terminus. It is also the northern terminus of Amtrak's Cascades service to Seattle and Portland. Intercity buses use it too, and it serves as the city's main intercity bus terminal. The station is next door to Main Street–Science World station, part of SkyTrain's Expo Line.
The Canadian Northern Railway built the station in 1917 as the end of its line to Edmonton, on reclaimed land once planned for dredging a canal to join False Creek and Burrard Inlet. The architecture firm Pratt and Ross designed it, and it was first named False Creek Station. Its dedication took place on November 2, 1919, one day after the first trains of the Canadian National Railway started to use it.
In 1991 a newspaper contest chose the name Pacific Central Station, and the building received federal heritage railway station status that year. Because the city had already named the rooftop neon sign a heritage structure, the sign could not simply be replaced. Instead, the words Pacific Central were put up in the same styling in December 1994. In 1986 the station also hosted a Via Rail pavilion at Expo 86.
About this model
The Pacific Central Station is one of more than 5,500 landmark models in Mini Skyline. They are made with AI, and each one is checked from four sides in its real surroundings before release. Each model is written as code from public descriptions, plans, photographs and aerial views used only as references; no image or third-party model is copied into it. Everything around it is built from OpenStreetMap and Overture map data. Rights in the building itself, its name and any brands on it are not granted by Mini Skyline; clear them separately before you sell prints. If you would rather print the shape from map data, turn off Landmark models in the Buildings settings.
