Saw this station for the first time in the late 60's and again about a year before the fire. It had been beautifully restored.

Have searched for info on its new restoral and have come empty.

Can anyone give me a site to find out its current status?

Thanks in advance.

Jerry

Nice photo Urban! Haven't been there in years and looks like you are aiming South. Am I right?

Can you add anything about the status of the restoration?

Thanks in advance. Jerry

Jerry -
Well, I didn't really know much about the history of the place when I arrived, but happened to be camping near Lee, MA and took a drive down to Canaan.

Yes, in the pic I am facing south. Restoration seems to be going well, from what I could see. Of course, things like plumbing and electrical work aren't visible from the exterior. But I can say I got no hint of the fire's scope from looking at the building's exterior.
