| Notes About Existing
Stations... Brister (OR&W) - Two separate structures comprised Brister Station. There was a passenger/freight waiting structure referred to as a sheltershed which was built during the years that the PRR operated the OR&W. It has been moved to Norwich (Muskingum County) and resides on a private farm. The station building adjacent to the sheltershed, dating from the BZ&C years, was also general store, post office, ticketing agent location. It also still exists, but has been abandoned at its original location. |
