Cabin D once stood beside the mainline just west of Bathurst Street and controlled the approaches to the Toronto Rail Lands.
.
Yesterday afternoon Cabin D was moved from its long time parking spot behind the roundhouse (as shown in the photo at the upper right) to the centre of the park close to its new foundation. While we knew it was to move soon - the movers dollies have been underneath for a week - it was a surprise with only a half-hours notice that yesterday was the day.

.
The route taken was north along the access road, east on the sidewalk past the coaling tower and then east and slightly south to the park centre. The pictures above show the Cabin at various points in its brief journey.
.
The cabin will remain where it is in the photo at the lower right above, on its wheels, for a few days while some earth moving occurs around the foundation after which it will be placed permanently and then undergo renovation.
