Mystery Location – Where Are We?

where

We will  make this one easy since we are just beginning this series.  This location is well-known to locals living in the area of the two competing lines which both served the area with brisk passenger trains and many coal drags.  Unfortunately one of these tracks was torn up partially due to duplication of the route in the early 20th century.  Fred Ripley was the first to guess correctly in last month’s mystery spot.  Remington, IN, on the former TP&W.  The lift facility was built in the early 80s in hopes of expanding intermodal traffic but that never developed.  The AT&SF absorbed then sold it off.

If you think you know the location (city and state) of our mystery photo, send your answer to me via email: bill@fbcmadisonville.com, or mail to Bill Thomas, 1025 Lakewood Dr., Madisonville, KY 42431.  Correct responses will be placed in a pool drawing in December for a small but meaningful prize.  Notoriety will also be included.
