Paul,

Here's a map of the area around the same time as the photos. Note the I-380
bridges now pass top to bottom about between the two O's in brook. The
valley, along with the track nearest the station, was pretty much wiped
clean by Hurricane Dianne in 1955 and most of the yard is buried under fill
from the interstate grading.

This photo:

puts Frank Adams' "mini tour" of the Winton Branch during the ELHS Scranton
convention photo-runby into perfect context! He pointed out the remains of
the Winton Branch "ramp" that can still be seen there. Not much of
"civilization" has taken over this scene, just Mother Nature's trees :)
