Notes About Existing Stations...

Franklin (LS&MS) - Fire damaged a large section of the building in 2001.

Oil City (OC&T) - Originally a gas station, now used by the OC&T as a railroad station.

Reno (PRR) - When it became non-agency it lost its distinctive depot architecture and may have been leased to the adjoining Wolf's Head refinery. Today the refinery is gone but the station remains..

Utica (A&GW) - This may be part of the original station. It looks just like the old AG&W station, but not as long.
