•
Through a fully funded educational project a Brandon University student has developed a business plan for the restoration of the Rivers Train Station.
•
Research is being made into the most effective and efficient alternative energy source for the station. The options that are being explored include solar, biodisel, geo-thermal and wind.
•
Committee members and volunteers have held numerous clean-up sessions at the station, preparing it for reconstruction and renovation. Looking good!
•
The general foundation and structure of the building is in good shape. Steps have been taken to prevent further deterioration of the roof.
•
VIA Rail Canada is working closely with the committee and community and is enthusiastic about the future partnership!
•
Part of the 'green' restoration plan for the roofing may include Enviroshakes® ... superior shingle product composed primarily of reclaimed materials.
•
The committee continues to work hard to promote and spread enthusiasm for the project.
•
ALL ABOARD!
