Being a "Railroad Fanatic"

I purchased the train station located in Catawissa Pa. in 1979

It was in Very Poor Shape

A year later I replaced all the windows and painted the outside.

A Photo in 1981 when I first open!

Since than I remove the outside signs & made the Station more like a RR Station

It had a sister engine named "The Comet"
