The Tracks as of late 1980’s
The building on the left with the cars in front is our headquarters and rolling stock storage area. The small building to the right of the blue van is the air compressor for the turntable lift and is next to the steaming bays. The faint track in the lower right is the 4-3/4″ and 3-1/2″ elevated track. On the upper right is the station, our information tent, and the public parking lot. This photo was taken shortly after the track was finished in late 1980’s, we have planted about 200 trees since then although it will take another decade or so for them to produce any real shade.
The trees have grown! The picture below is from Google in 1922.
