The train in Wooster was a surprise. People from our area traveled of course but trying to find the location of some of the pictures is a challenge. I emailed these to my many rail friends and two of them cam back with Wooster, Ohio. I was then able to locate a photo of the Wooster station and the building behind matched. I was able to put a location on another picture that has been around the EL historical society for 2 years just today and it was taken in Mount Dora, FL, a vacation spot for one of the families. The picture we needed the location for was a post office/ general store. I had just scanned the original negative for the owner who had bought them from Ebay. The other day my cousin gave me this picture from the collection
which had trees with a similar appearance so searching th MT Dora Historical Society site I found a match for this picture
, and this is the one that was posted on the Mt. Dora site.
Without the internet this would have been impossible. It's no wonder I am not getting much done, but heck, I am having fun.
I will be posting some mystery pictures and asking for help too.
