In addition to its natural beauty, Forest is also known for its rich history. The town was founded in the mid-19th century, and many of its original buildings still stand today. One of the most notable buildings is the Forest Train Station. Forest’s first railway station was built in 1860. It was a simple frame building and was destroyed by fire in 1898. A new , elegant station opened in 1901. The station played an important role in the town's development, as it allowed for the transportation of goods and people to and from the area. The last train ran in the 1970’s and the station eventually closed and was torn down. In 1985 a unique public library was built on the site of the Grand Trunk Railway Station. Using architect’s drawings acquired from the National Archives, a modified replica of Forest’s second station was created.
