About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Delta Station Post Office, every morning around sunrise, an anonymous voice comes over the PA: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, today’s special delivery is a package from the future!’ Employees look at each other, but no one ever sees anyone leaving with such a package. One day, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Who could possibly be sending packages from the future?’ A regular customer whispered back, ‘Probably someone trying to avoid paying taxes on time.’ Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe the voice was just a clever way for the postmaster to remind everyone to file their returns.

2. At Delta Station Post Office, on foggy mornings when everyone else is still asleep, a mysterious figure in a green apron starts sorting letters by moonlight. One day, an exhausted delivery driver arrived just as the figure was finishing up. ‘Who are you and why do you work so late?’ he asked curiously. The figure smiled, revealing a mouthful of mismatched teeth. ‘I’m just the night letter fairy,’ she replied, tucking her last envelope into place. ‘And I make sure every letter gets where it needs to go.’ The driver shook his head and muttered, ‘Next time, wake someone up!’

3. At Delta Station Post Office, every night after closing, a mysterious package arrives addressed simply to ‘Someone Who Needs This.’ One morning, the postmaster found a note attached: 'Dear Someone Who Needs This, please return what belongs to you.' Turns out, it was just a regular's cat who had mistaken the PO box for a mailbox.

4. At Delta Station Post Office, every afternoon during lunch break, a neighbor stops by with a thermos full of freshly brewed coffee for the entire staff. One day, an enthusiastic new delivery driver arrived with a huge box labeled ‘Free Donuts!’ Everyone cheered, thinking it was their daily treat. But when he opened it, out popped a live chicken that started pecking around the counter. The staff spent the rest of the afternoon trying to herd the chicken back into its box while the neighbor kept refilling their coffee.
