Looks like they're coming along nicely on rebuilding the burned wing of the New Haven depot at Canaan, Connecticut: http://photos.nerail.org/showpic/?photo ... bydate%3A2 |

Thanks. This is one project that seemed hopeless. But what a great relief to see it return from the dead. |

Here is a photo showing the reconstructed wing, with a visiting tourist train for Canaan Railway Days earlier this month. Taken by the intrepid reporter for "I Ride the Harlem Line"  Source: http://www.iridetheharlemline.com/2011/07/21/photos-from-canaan-railway-days/ http://www.iridetheharlemline.com/2011/04/15/the-rebirth-of-a-train-station-canaan/ |

OA - Thanks for the photo of the Canaan depot restoration. Quite a comeback! About the only other structure I can think of that approaches its restoration, is the Pullman Company Administration and Clock Tower on the south side of Chicago. It was heavily damaged by fire and a massive, and expensive, restoration job, brought it back to its original splendor. Les |

Back from the dead and cremated! Ideas like this breathe new life into hopes for preservation. Thanks for posting. |
