Not to doubt Bob, he knows his stuff but I read here: http://www.ironminers.com/mineforum/viewtopic.php?t=2178 That the Drakesville train station was several hundred feet west of the Howard Bvld crossing. I'm sure Bob is right though. Speaking of that area, Does anyone have any pictures of the original overpass for Howard Bvld they could post? My father tells me it was very old and narrow. I believe it was replaced when I 80 was built. Also, I asked this once before years ago, Did the DLnW serve a quarry or open pit mine just east of the new station? There is a dark cinder path leading off of into the woods between the main and Rt. 80 that goes into a open pit. If this link works, the new station area should be in the left lower center, The cinder path I'm talking about is near the upper right, under the buttons that say "traffic", "map" and "satellite" Thanks, Mike D. - -----Original Message----- From: Paul R.
