Ken, Conrad & Bill Archie, Than ks for all the help and replies. I do have the pictures and for fun see the one I have posted. I was thinking the loco in the picture is a 4-4-0, but maybe someone can say for sure. Several have speculated that the occasion was the arrival of the first train in 1904. As a youth I played on the old bridge many times and last year visited the station in Wellsville. Like most kids I never gave one thought that I would even care about what was going on around me at some future date! I have seen a photo of the tank at Hawk Point and as far as I know there were stock pens and a sale barn in New
Truxton. there was also a Granary, the old type from when the grain was sacked and loaded in boxcars that way. I have not been able to find a site plan with the layout of buildings & facilities near the station but Locals tell me the pens and Granary were east of the station I do have a photo of the station with the Granary in the background. Was there a Burlington Bulletin on the short line? If so can anyone loan a copy or let me know if I can buy a back issue for our museum? Conrad, I have very confusing information on the abandonment, one source said it was 1976 and another said 1985 but that is wrong for sure. I have tried to pin things down more precisely by going to the government records with no luck. There is supposedly a color picture of a BN GP-30 at New Truxton with a crew pulling up the rails, but in years of searching I have never found a copy. The dates you give of 1982 1983 make more sense and I am wondering if you have any more details about it, or where I can find some paper records for the museum. I did a search on the contractor but came up with nothing there. This has turned out to be a lot of fun for me and I very much appreciate all the replies and stories. I will await the story about the Belleville station!! Attachment(s) from William Canelos 1 of 1 Photo(s) __._,_.___
