Many towns in Saskatchewan were built because the rail line came through. This ghost town was one of those towns. I don't have much history on the town but I do know that a few houses remain and there is a sign for an old school so it was a community of sorts. Today it sites abandoned, known as Lyons Junction or Tichfield Junction.

A ghost town where only the former school-turned community center remains. You can still see the remains of where the streets once were.

Many towns in Saskatchewan were formed because of the railway. The railway formed the community by establishing the railway, building grain elevators and stations. There are far more towns along railway lines than not. Today, many of the rail lines are gone but you can still find old maps with these rail lines and the old towns, we have a big one hanging on our wall.

Everyone loves a good multi-storey small town hotel right? Most small-town hotels are either gone or they are using the main floor for the bar and maybe renting out a few rooms. The upper floors of rooms are usually boarded up and the chances of seeing them is not very high. We have photographed multiple motels but never a hotel. This was exciting!
