Key To The Tables

"City" - City or town where station is located. If a station has been moved to a city or town other than its original location, the station will be listed under both locations.

"Railroad" - The railroad that built the station. Sometimes this can hard to discern if the date of the building is not known and mergers and transformations have taken place. Some of the stations in the list have ????s not because we do not know what line they are on, but rather because we did not know which railroad (evolutionary version or predecessor) built the structure.

"Current Location" - We have tried to be as specific as possible, giving addresses when possible or, barring that, intersection or street names. When submitting a location be specific enough so others might find the station.

"Type" -

• P = Passenger
• F = Freight
• C = Combination Passenger and Freight.

"Current Use"

• Private = on private property or used as someone's home. If you go there you should ask if you want to take a photo. Sometimes owners will chase you off with a shotgun but other owners are friendly and can even give some of the station's history. If you ask you can either get a running start or meet some nice folks.

• Business = Houses a shop. If their wares or food looks good - give it a try. Sometimes these businesses are responsible for the preservation of the building and your patronage can't hurt that effort.

• Storage = Used by an industry or business (for example, a lumber company to store wood).

• Municipal/Civic = Local/state run offices such as police, fire, library, and village offices.

• RR = Used as railroad office, maintenence of way shop, or still as station for Amtrak or an excursion line.

• Society = A museum or preservation club.

"Date Built" -  Self-explanatory.

"Track Status" -  Self-explanatory. Again we tried to be as specific as possible.

"Building Material" -  W = Wood; B = Brick or Stone; S = Stucco.

"Notes" -  Anything more specific that does not fit in another column. If someone submits an extended note or story about a deopt I will make a link from the note section to the extended text.
