Re: (erielack) End of the line for Kingsley station...

What is especially sad is that it was in good repair and in use during the 
time about 15 years ago when it was used as an endpoint for the Steamtown 
trips out of Scranton. That was an awfully rapid decline. I haven't been 
down there in several months, but the last time I saw it, it was in bad 
shape, though it looked structurally OK to this untrained eye-not like the 
entire building was going to crash. I have to wonder if it had help.
