Arnold's Cove Station, Newfoundland and Labrador

Arnold's Cove Station, Newfoundland and Labrador

Arnold's Cove Station is a tiny Canadian rural community located on Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador.

It is situated approximately two kilometers from the town of Arnold's Cove, from which it derived its name.

The community was established in the 1890s when Robert Gillespie Reid's Newfoundland Railway was constructed through the area, bypassing Arnold's Cove proper.

Most of the settlers worked for the Reid Newfoundland Railway and in later years the Canadian National Railway.

Members of the United States Army were stationed in the community during World War Two.
