    Here is our locomotive at its former home, the Ohio Edison Power Plant in Niles, Ohio, as it was readied to move to our station.

    Here is the switch or turnout that lets our  Brookville Rail Bus on to the main line from its barn.

    Track Leveling

    Here we are jacking the track into place before spiking it to the ties with a jackhammer.

    This is our meeting room. It is the Ladies Waiting Room. Yes, in 1907 the Railroad gave the ladies their own waiting room. The narrow window in the corner gave a view of incoming trains.

    The Brookville in Action!

    Here is our 1940 Brookville U.S. Army Rail Bus in  action. It was used by the Army to haul ammunition at the Raritan Arsenal in New Jersey. It took us close to 20 years to restore it.
