The former CNR station at Jordan Station, seen here a couple of blocks from the tracks and in-use as a private home:

The former CPR station at Goderich, Ontario, now owned by that town's Works Dept., and used for storage:

The first Grimsby, Ontario train station, built by the Great Western Rwy. (later CNR) in the 1850s. It's shown here, in at least its fourth incarnation, as a pottery and antique dealership. Previously it was a lumber outlet, and before that, an agricultural supply dealer. It was moved about 100' from its original location when the "new" station was built:

Here's its replacement, built by the CNR:

It later became a roadhouse-type bar and restaurant, while continuing to function as a station, served by CN (later VIA) and Amtrak:

It eventually burned to the ground, but has been replace by a glass and steel shelter, still served by VIA and Amtrak.
I don't know for what this building was used originally, but I doubt that it was either a bowling alley or the BAP's main plant:
