| Notes About Existing
Stations... Clyde (LS&MS Freight) - This old freight house appears to now be the north part of the Moose Lodge building. It was on the northwest transfer track (now gone). It was built in 1875 according to NYCRR valuation records. Danbury (LS&MS) - Now a barber shop in Fremont. The station was known as Marblehead Junction prior to 1904. It was changed to Danbury to avoid confusion since the station was not in Marblehead. The station was the transfer between the LS&MS mainline and the L&M. The station sat for some time in a cornfield to the rear of its original location in Danbury. It was then moved to the faux Fort Firelands on 163 and Bridge Rd. in Danbury and then finally to its current location in Fremont in 1979. Fremont (LS&MS/LE&W) - Depot Pizza & Bar. A previous, smaller depot sat on this site prior to 1871 (the year it was built according to NYCRR valuation records). Although built by the LS&MS, this station also served the LE&W according to the 1914 Sanborn Fire Insurance map. The LE&W had a spur that pulled up to the west side of the building. Fremont (LE&W) - NS Crew Point. |
