After seeing Jacob Patterson's Linwood Station photo, I was pleased to read that the owner's kept the letter I had left upon my only visit in December 2005. I remember that day well, as it was a very cold and blustery. However, I could not have imagined that this structure was ever a station after it was remodeled into a home, except for the tell tale operators bay window. Although this is two years shy of a time machine photo, you can see how far the building has come. Of note, the freight shed portion of the station was removed and placed on an adjacent property, which would have been located directly behind me. Used for storage, it was in poor shape then...wonder if it still stands now?

  1. Glad you were able to dig this one out. The freight shed portion was demolished shortly after your visit. It had been used as a garage for some local kids and to work on cars and party.

  2. Thanks for that information Jacob. Too bad that it couldn’t have been saved as well.
