Peavine Pieces #2 Shelter sheds

[NW Mailing List]

Jeffrey:
Sounds like an interesting project. You may want to check the Virginia Tech website information. I remember seeing pictures of sheds but I do not know if they were the standard or not.

I remember an even smaller one at Belspring, VA after the full station was demolished.

>While prowling through the N&W Annual Reports CD I noticed two things.  

>AR #19 1915: Shelter sheds were erected at several locations around the system, cities were listed, including Beaver Pond, which is the one that I am interested in.

>AR #6 1902: The station at Arion was converted to a shelter shed and moved to the north side of the tracks.

>My question is, are there any photos or drawings of the shelter sheds?  I am modeling in N-scale the old line and new line between Rarden, Ohio and the rock quarry at Plum run where the two lines split. I would like to build one of theses structures at the Beaver Pond location if any info is available.  Thanks  for any info sent forward.
