The Moulinette Station was erected c.1910 through the lobbying efforts of Mr. John G. Snetsinger, Member of Parliament for Stormont County, 1896-1900. The station was erected on the east 1/2 of Lot 31, Concession 1, Township of Cornwall, on property purchased by the Grand Trunk Railway from Rev. Stephen Brownell in 1854. The station served passengers on the Grand Trunk/Canadian National Railway at Moulinette, Ontario. It received passengers, mail, and goods via the Moccasin train on its runs between Brockville and Montreal. Prior to inundation, the station was moved by Moulinette resident Elgin Alguire to his farm south of Avonmore, Ontario.

The Moulinette Station was donated to The Lost Villages Historical Society by Mrs.Olive Alguire,widow of Elgin.
