Medicine Hat station is a Heritage Railway station in Medicine Hat, Alberta. It was built in 1906 and expanded in 1911–1912, using red brick from Medicine Hat and sandstone from Calgary.^[1]

Passenger services

Notable passenger trains included the Imperial Limited which ran from 1899 to 1933, which got replaced by the Dominion which ran from 1933 to 1966, and the Canadian from 1955 to 1990, which replaced the Dominion as the flagship train. In 1978, Via Rail took over all Canadian passenger trains, including the Canadian which was the only train serving the station at that time. Passenger services to the station ended on January 15, 1990 when the Canadian was rerouted on the Canadian National Railway main line through northern Alberta, serving Edmonton due to budget cuts.
