Hi all,
I just did a mini road trip down to Franklin to ride on the Allegheny River trail and the Sandy Creek trail. Really nice. I'll go back again. After the ride, I headed down to Washington to check out the Pennsylvannia Trolley Museum.
I stayed at a hotel on Race Track rd and went looking for a place to eat in town. I ended up eating at the Upper Crust on S. Main St at the Jct of 40/18. After dinner, I walked down the street towards the tracks and came upon a RR station and walked further and I think I saw another one. It was 10pm at night and no camera so I came back this morning and took pictures. Not posted yet.
Who did these stations belong too? One was on the live track for the Allegheny Valley RR. A stone block construction. The other one was red brick and looked to be on a ROW with cobble stone still in place on the north side of it. Original entry doors. It does look like the brick is ready to crumble in spots. Probably owned by Jedson Wiley and sons. Not sure. Oh, and who's red caboose is that sitting up so high?
I need the info before I post the pictures.
By the way, the trolley museum is pretty good. The ride was also good. I couldn't believe the collection of Trolleys they have in the storage building and the outstanding condition they are in. Even the bad ones look pretty good!
