Kaladar Gas Station

These are of a small gas station located in Kaladar of Hastings County. The gas station closed in 2007. A couple of rusting old gas pumps remain.

For those of you who are old enough to recall the 1968 B & W film called "Best Darn Fiddler from Calabogie to Kaladar" starring a very young Margot Kidder (Lois Lane) check out the NFB(a)s website that shows the entire film here:

The farm buildings at the opening of this movie were in quite bad shape in 1968- some had fallen over. I think a trek to the farm where it was shot would produce some real awesome derliect buildings these days. And check out those ancient cars at the start where Margot Kidder grabs the mail from the rickety mailbox.
