Hello NERailers:
The Maplewood Depot that was moved to Charles Ro Train store a couple of years ago for preservation was ordered razed by the City of Malden. The depot was torn down a few weeks ago. The depot has was built in 1853 to serve the Saugus Branch and the Eastern Railroad.
I think this will put to rest any idea of Ro's getting static displays of railroad equipment. In the past few years there was talk of moving a GG1 or other locomotive to the site, but I would guess now that is out of the question.
This is a sad day for railroad preservation in Massachusetts.
Thanks...
Jerry Kelley
