They're going to MOVE it. The train is on the old SAL east-west line; the engine is astride the SAL Richmond-Savannah main line. There's a connection behind the station between these two tracks, all three are fairly busy. CSX is said to be tired of the liability of railfans hanging out there as well as passengers crossing the tracks, so the town of Hamlet has let a contract to section the building into three chunks (turret plus two wings), pick them up, move them due south across the east-west line and rotate the whole mess 90 degrees to keep the turret in the 'crotch'. They sold the station to the town of Hamlet who will restore it to its original glory, using the first floor for the passengers again. It's a real jewel. |

Hinton WV Compared to the 20-year-later photo below, the place really has deteriorated. A Chessie Steam Special was turning at Hinton this day. |

Hyde Park Station This is the station at Hyde Park, NY. It actually is not used by Amtrak, but its along the Hudson line and sees lots of Amtrak trains fly by at 90mph every day. It has been converted into a railroad museum now. |
