In 1969, the Don Train Station was moved to Todmorden Mills Museum. The Station was built in 1895-96, and had stood near the Queen Street Bridge on the Don River.

It was the Station from which the Conservation Specials organized by Charles Sauriol and the Don Valley Conservation Association had departed.

Over the years, the Station had declined in importance and by 1967, was no longer in use. Through the efforts of the East York Foundation, the Don Train Station was saved from demolition and relocated to the Museum grounds.

The Todmorden Paper Mill restoration was completed in the 1970s; it became the studio space for the Don Valley Art Club as well as a theatre space for the East Side Players.
