Unable to locate the apropos thread. There are (many) others in NE, eg, New London, CT. Portsmouth, NH http://terraserver.homeadvisor.msn.com/ ... 2&z=19&w=2 http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?si ... V2glSRtQZ5 Worcester, MA http://terraserver.homeadvisor.msn.com/ ... 0&z=19&w=1 http://www.mapquest.com/maps/print.adp? ... GapwSeI%3d The mapquest photo links may require 'account' (free) for access. The Worcester RH is due S of 'old' Amtrak station, fully converted to 'light industries'. The Portsmouth one is almost indistinguishable in THIS image (better in the older ones, no longer available...). Structure is (seemingly) 'abandoned', decaying. Brick, 3 stall. Pit, with turntable in place, remains. Honorable Mention to Jewett, ME (Conway Junction, as was), where a TT pit survives, signposted, adjacent to Rt 236. (Rt 236 USED to be the Eastern RR....). Pit invisible on aerial photos. (There was ALSO a Conway Jct, NH, about 3 mi away.. Both renamed, ca 1900.) best dwp davep@quik.com |
