Sells Station A local wrote to say that he doubts that this photo is of Sells Station. I am inclined to agree as the area around Sells Station probably would not have called for such a significant trestle. I am leaving this photo here as it was marked "Sells Station" when I got it and in hopes that someone can properly identify it.

Notes About Existing Stations...

Gettysburg (Hanover Junction RR) - See this site for more info.

Gettysburg (Reading) - Some claimed that this was built by the BR&P as their Rockton depot in Clearfield County and moved in the 1980s to Gettysburg by the Gettysburg Railroad's previous owner. This is NOT the station that was moved to Gettysburg. This station is original to Gettysburg according to old postcards and the current management of the Gettysburg RR. The station that was moved from Rockton was moved again to Kane, PA (see McKean County or Clearfield County pages for listing).
