These are a couple years old. I think they've built up the area (waterfront townhouses) since these were taken...

| Post subject: | RR station location in Maryland? |
When I was statione (no pun intended) at Aberdeen, MD, I once crossed over the Susquehanna at Perryville, and headed upriver toward Pennsylvania, and the road along the North bank of the river went through a neat little tow before going under the tracks. The tracks were to the elft, most of the houses were to the right. In the middle there, I saw and photographed a small stone RR station that looked like it hadn't been used in decades. I can't find the photo to save my life now, but does anyone know where that was? And NO, It's not Perryville! This was a branch that fed into the main at Perryville, but was further up the river... |

Growing up in Havre de Grace, I know exactly what you're talking about. The station is in Port Deposit, along the old Port road. I remember reading somewhere it was actually a freight station.... most of the year it was severely overgrown with vines and hard to distinguish. I have a few pictures, if I can find them... -Joe |

That sounds right to me, based on the maps I looked at and the description. Any efforts for a resotration? From what I recall, it was a nice looking structure... |

That's the one. It was covered in a lot of weeds when I lived near there (for 6 months) back in 1998. THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO ANSWERED MY QUESTION! |
