S&NY engine #115 and train curves southbound at Marsh Hill on last week’s “Wordless Wednesday”. To the left is the S&NY Marsh Hill depot, and Marsh Hill yard is in the distance. The PRR’s Elmira Branch is directly behind the photographer, and the train will momentarily enter PRR territory and head south on the branch to Newberry, PA.
The #115 was sold and went to Providence, RI after abandonment, per Kaseman’s book. Disposition otherwise unknown.
The small building on the right in front of the unpainted (?) house looks like it is painted in company colors, could it be the privy?
Ernie,
Good question. I was wondering about the house beyond. I have drawings of a crew bunkhouse that was to be built in Marsh Hill, I think. Wondering if it was ever built and if that house might be it. Have to dig out those drawings…
