I know I mentioned this to someone, but i can't remember who
The story starts, like most of my "Adventure" stories do:
I was geocaching in Delaware and Maryland and while we were going along Henderson Rd. in Maryland, I (of course) noticed a rail line
I marked the location on my GPS and promptly forgot all about it
Now, a month later - I'm loading more stuff into the GPSr and I remembered the tracks.....
How would you like to have a railroad through your front yard???
Here is the website describing the railroad.

It seems it actually ran through this area until 1982!
Really interesting, I think and worth sharing.
To find the road, google "marydel md" turn on "Maps" not satelite and you'll see the railroad heading South... Follow it until it meets up with Henderson Rd.. Really neat stuff!!!
