Chewton - I'm not sure that this is a station but it looks like one of B&O design. If it is, it is not what served as the main B&O station. A local told me that it was a MOfW shed moved many years ago from "down the tracks" but it is quite ornate to be a MOfW building. It is the second to last garage on the river side of the street.

Harlansburg - Although the RR never ran through Harlansburg, the owners built a replica station (of no particular RR design) and opened a very nice transportation museum complete with passenger platform and old PRR passenger cars. Lots of RR items on display and a gift shop. Open everyday except Monday in the summer till 5 pm. Open Sat and Sun till 5 p.m. in the winter. Short drive from New Castle or Grove City.

New Castle (Erie) - 250 of track still in front of station with an ex-P&LE Transfer Caboose.

New Wilmington - This is part of the Amish Peddler gift shop although barely recognizable due to additions and siding. When looking at the building from the front you will see two roof peaks. The smaller peak to the left defines the part that was the station. Also there is a small loading platform still on the West side of the building. Inside the store you can make out the original wooden East outside wall of the station.

West Pittsburg - The Beaver Valley Junction NRHS has purchased and is in the process of restoring this long neglected station. So far it has been cleaned out and many broken roof tiles have been replaced. The chapter has fund raisers often to support the work and payments. The station is surely a large station for such a small town. Back when it was built there were big plans for this town. -- Don Gee
