the freight depot was used as storage by CSX, the passenger depot was nicely restored.

doc moses · 05-27-2011, 10:23 PM

The restored but neglected loading area of the depot at Dresden, Ohio

doc moses · 05-27-2011, 10:26 PM

Look closely... in the heart of the New River Gorge, West Virginia, the restored C&O depot. The film "Matewan" was shot here in the late '80s.

Not exactly a station but the abandoned tower at West Side, WVa no longer controls traffic through the tunnel at Tunnelton, West Virginia.

doc moses · 05-27-2011, 10:36 PM

Not exactly a station, but a tunnel in southern Ohio.

doc moses · 05-27-2011, 10:44 PM

Abandoned tunnel, KLR from a vew years back.

Great idea for a photo thread. I love old depots, and I really love Alcos.

Thanks Jon!
