I made this a few weeks ago while photographing a covered bridge in another part of Ashland, NH. The town has preserved its historic train station and the historical society operates it as a museum. Below is a BW image of a train snowplow that is also at the train station.
Very impressive! Such a great find. Hope no one ever is offended by it. Thanks for sharing! Awesome pics!
Great shots! I love the sun through the trees in the one of the train station. My husband and I drove past it a couple of weekends ago, and I wondered if you’re photographed it.
Thank you! Yes, that station also has a great caboose that I featured separately. It’s a nice town.
We’ve driven through it a number of times. We need to park the car, get out, and walk around!
Great!!!
Thank you.
Anytime ☺
collections..
Thank you
I miss my travels (when hubby was alive) maybe I’ll eventually venture out again, of course these days, there is no crossing the border… I love you take us to different places.. and show us your fab finds. Have a good one…
Thank you so much. We keep talking about wanting to visit Montreal. Let’s hope things calm down and the borders can open soon.
Quaint. Buzzing with conversation from the Past. 🐝🍃
So true. Have a great day!
These are beautiful images Chris! What a great find on a perfect morning! And it’s nice that the town has preserved this history instead of abandoning it. We just got back from a hike. The last half a mile (only half a mile? Felt like forever) was straight up incline with temps heading towards 100 again today. Glad to be home with the AC working! Hope you are doing well today!
Thank you, Sandra. Were you hiking in a canyon? (That’s usually when the last bit is uphill.) How was it, besides hot? I feel passinate about history and its preservation. Stay cool.
It sounds like a canyon doesn’t it? It’s a park/recreation area with multiple trails through the protected oak woodland in Auburn CA. There’s a platform that was built, an observation deck for people to enjoy views of the year round waterfalls. It’s really pretty. I hope I have a few good pictures to share. I’ll take a look. I hope you’re doing well Chris!
It sounds great. I can’t wait to see the pics. It’s good to get out to move around and do something, isn’t it?
It really is. And it was nice to do a new walk for a change of scenery. I hope you’re doing well today Chris!
lovely photos as always! I love that the town preserved it and it is now a museum!
I know, isn’t that awesome. That’s the same town that opted to build a covered bridge rather than accept a modern one from the state.
Another town preserving a historic structure! How wonderful it’s a museum now. Great photos! Happy Day to you.
Oh wow
I have never seen a train snowplow and that front view of it showed it last strong structure and power –
Glad we still have these train areas preserved – oh and we happen to have an Ashland in Virginia and the train runs right through it
Beautiful photos, Chris! That snowplough is mighty impressive!!
Wouldn’t want to e in its way.
Me neither!!
