New Owners of Vegreville Train Station Erin Roska and John Bijblic will Conserve Historical Site Rosanne Fortier News Correspondent Historical buildings are precious and some of Vegreville’s treasures! Vegreville Train Station is one of these sites which has been active for many years and will continue to be as the New Owners of Vegreville Train Station, Erin Roska and John Bijblic’s vision is to renovate and preserve this building. Erin Roska and John Bijblic are originally from around Tofield but they moved to Vegreville about two months ago. They are just discovering the town but they really like it so far as the people are really friendly. They decided to purchase Vegreville Train Station because of the historical part of it. “We drove by and fell in love with the building,” Erin said. “We plan to bring it back to the building’s historical and original self back to how it was in the 1930s. Then we want to have catering and we will rent out the hall and banquet room for weddings. We will do catering ourselves. On the weekends we plan to try to have flea markets where we will rent out tables for this. Also, we will have a café in the building. Hopefully, one day we will have an antique store in it too.”
