(rshsdepot) "New" PRR depot on Middle Division

["Alexander D. Mitchell IV" <LNER4472_@_bcpl.net>]

Forwarded from PRR-FAX list:

"Several weeks ago had occasion to take back road from Thompsontown to Port
Royal PA, a part of which parallels the old PRR Middle Division. Noticed,
where a siding used to come off the main a new building nearing completion
very much in the style of an old PRR way station including the keystone in
rectangle signs reading "Tuscarora Springs."

Anybody out there know what's going on?"

"
well, you have just passed the new home of Paul Withers, of Withers 
Publishing ! ( Horseshoe Heritage, PRR Diesel Series, etc etc..).

The excellent signs are reproductions designed and crafted by Paul 
and old PRR Conductor pal Larry Mennie ( now in FLA, darn it...))).

I am sure that Paul and / or Dan and / or Ken will report about 
this "new station on the PRR" soon...? 

And yes, you can 'highball' passing trains from that neat front bay 
window simulated agent / operator area !

Paul is a super fellow, possibly tours will be arranged in the 
future..???"
