Does anyone have knowledge of this station (highlighted in red on attached map) which appears to have been on a RR line where it crosses Don Mills Rd., just north of the present Eglinton Ave.

I had never before known of such a station. The map is dated 1932.
Since I grew up on Donlands Ave., I have a personal interest.
I wonder if a photo of the Donlands Station is available.

I have a Toronto area railway drawing/map/schematic that shows a Donlands station east of Leaside and a Don Mills station east of that with the next location being Agincourt on the CPR Belleville Sub. The only station anywhere near this location that I can remember is at York Mills Rd on the former Canadian Northern Rlwy.
 
Mystery Station

Thanks for that info, spider.
The location of the station on my map (1932) is definately east of Leaside and immediately beside Don Mills Rd.
Last summer I shot this photo which may show the remains of an abandoned station.
