| Post subject: | Old Alabama Rails- photos added |
A large number of historic photos have been added to the Old Alabama Rails website. Old Alabama Rails is a proposal to turn the crumbled remains of the former Western Railway of Alabama car and engine shops at Montgomery, Alabama into a riverfront tourist/shopping/eating attraction with a historical bent. Long, long term plans include replicating the missing roundhouse and turntable as well. A somewhat long shot proposal (headed by an Episcopal priest who is from Montgomery but presently lives in Minnesota), the project has received relatively positive press. You have to give them credit for trying. See the website and newly added photos at link below: http://www.oldalabamarails.org/ ryarger@rypn.org |
