Wanted to make a harder geocache. This is a Sarnia Historical location.
Building as part of the Sarnia Consumer’s Gas Plan in 1880, this station produced and marketed fuel gas for lighting and heating. By 1894, the plant was generating electric power with a GE dynamo driven by a Goldy-McCullough 100hp. steam engine that produced enough power to light 500 incandescent lamps. When the street railway become electrified, the company had to boost its energy production to meet the new demand. In 1916, Ontario Hydro took over the electrical power production and Union Gas took over the fuel gas production. Sarnia Consumer’s Gas ceased to exist and this building became an Ontario Hydro sub-station. Congrats on the FTF JayTara :)
