"He scoured your pages throughout the last years of his life, and it would be an understatement to say they helped give him some determination, goals, and enjoyment (or said another way - an interesting project to keep him physically and mentally active). Both of us had always liked the Patapsco State Park, and trains, but we never really put it all together until we started reading through your site. He talked about it to everyone he met!"

Many of the photos at this B&O site were snapped by Mr. Hiteshew, so it is fitting to include one of the man, seen here enjoying a trackside moment just a few months prior. His memory survives through his sharing with all of us the trains and hikes and history he loved so much.

"The Museum will temporarily close the historic station beginning February 2006 to refurbish its rooms and install exhibits. We will present its Grand Re-Opening Celebration on March 10-12, 2006."

Greeting: Unfortunately MARC and CSX have decided to end passenger services at the St. Denis stop. I saw your pictures(very nice images) and thought you might be interested. I'm trying to get a lot of support to stop them from closing this historic station. If you or any of your friends are interested in helping stop MARC please join us at:
