The photos are great.
I started a thread some time back asking UHH'rs to photograph their town, just as you have done. So much is disappearing these days that history is being lost. Keep doing the great job.

Thank you, I'm glad you like the photos. My son is hoping to write a book about growing up in rural Maine and illustrate it with some of our pictures. It has been interesting comparing our pictures to those taken 50 or 60 years ago. The changes are really quite depressing.

Former NYC depot in Diamond Ohio.
The tracks have been gone far more than 30 years.

Yes I think they showed the desolation well, as a former railroader, I know what it feels like to have the tracks pulled
out from under me. Thanks for posting.

Your pictures show me that you know that feeling of desolation. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

My pleasure, here's a happier scene.
