As we crossed the border into Canada an old CPR caboose can be seen

Entering Canada we stopped by this nice old station while Canadian customs cleared us and checked the train, we had to rush through lunch as we arrived early then it took at least 2 hours for the inspection during which time we were to stay in our seats and not to move so customs could clear the train.
