To the left side there is some building falling apart, sitting, rotting away slowly. Being metal it's going to be rotting away for awhile.

I guess it's not a good sign when you see gravel piled up on the tracks. No train today, just train tracks.

Ruins, hmm welcome to America lets just abandon it all , leave it there so no one can use the land, and it can just be a hazzard to all who live there. One great thing about America. Throw away you can build another cheaper then fixing it up, just buy it new. I wonder where we are going as a country. I'm sure the world will start yelling one day when they realize that we are throwing our garbage all over the world even third world countries where they don't even know what plastic is, yet are knee deep in it. That or realize it's under their kids play ground. I say this yet we are not the only country doing this. Yours may be too.

Hmm I still wonder what happened or why they just threw everything to the side and walked away. Leaving an eye sore. I'm sure the local neighbors are thankful they did that. Yeah right like they want their kids to get hurt all because of someone else's carelessness. Oh well this is America, Only a very few seem to care, everyone else. Well they just close their eyes and don't look.

I do love train tracks. It's like they have their own story to tell.

This is right by the train tracks. I believe it use to be something that would load gravel or something into those big bins they have. It's obviously not used any longer.

We gave up on the train and found this old antique fire engine near by. We had to stop and take a few pictures of it. Sorry about the order of this, it didn't load onto the site correctly, not sure why.

This kinda gives the indication that no one lives around here, and that it's closed. However it's not, it is open. Just don't ask to use the bathroom.

Note the train tracks in front, sorry this is out of order, yet it's by the train tracks. Let's Keep America Safe. Yeah right safe from who? I can't believe this was actually allowed to just wrot and stay just like this. Come on kids come and play. To me is an accident waiting to happen, or a beautiful space for a flea market if someone would come in and fix it up.
