This reminds me. Mr. Roy, of Branchville, had brandy new eaves brackets and trefoils made when he owned the station. He had in mind to restore it before the fatal January storms collapsed the roof. Anyway, Mr. Roy recently asked me if I knew of anyone who'd be interested in the trefoils because they are taking up space in his warehouse. If anyone's interested, I can put you in contact with him, or if you're local, just look up The Roy Co. in Branchville.
