Snapshot - July 2026

The train was just about to depart but it gave me time to include Don in one of my photos. May 29, 2026.

This months snapshot is of Don's and I visiting the Springfield, Ma. station during the RPM in town. We walked over in maybe 10 minutes. Although there was not much to see other than one train departing as we arrived we waited for a bit. It appears that day a fire broke out in the station in NYC which delayed trains...George Dutka

I'm not sure if the platform is coming down or being rebuilt. But all there is at the moment is the frame.

On our walk to and from the station in Springfield we saw something of interest. Tucked into the base of the railroad bridge is a small tavern. Kind of a neat thing to model. 

A closer up view of the tavern tucked in next to the bridge. May 29, 2026.

We took a different route back to the hotel and passed this wall of painted photo related logo's. It appears that the building was once a photo shop. Hard to believe they needed 5 floors to keep supplies that today Staples keeps on one shelf.
