Comments on: Like a scene from long-ago branchline railroading, Conrail crew watches and waves from the Van as the CR transfer heads back Stateside on a late afternoon in June of 1979. Note the US-bound merchandise is in crates. The vans are history, as is the old Bridgeburg B-1 Station. The building was jacked up and moved across the tracks to be trucked to the RR theme park on Central Av to keep CN 6218 and Ridgeway Sta company. Why it was then painted a sickly yellow I don’t know. Bridgeburg was the original community name. Fort Erie was further to the south. Now, of course, they are one.

H.T.Grep: The station was lifted and moved across the tracks to the south side and settled on supports on May 5, 1982. It was then trucked to its current permanent location shortly after that. Perhaps a week later…….(thanks for the comment, Ryan)
