It's such a nice station.<BR/><BR/>I don't know what can be done about the rash of vandalism across this province. The windows on the caboose in Fredericton Junction were smashed out, so now they're covered with wire. There have been multiple vandalisms at the New Brunswick Railway Museum. It's epidemic.Canadian Train Geekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05525092107895665275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18600515.post-50950760413741810412007-07-20T08:39:00.000-05:002007-07-20T08:39:00.000-05:00I see you have visited our little railway station ...I see you have visited our little railway station in Burtts Corner. Since you were there, all the windows were smashed and now are boarded over with plywood. The railway bridge was burned with tires so that the trail is now impassable just up from the station. We are having a lot of vandelism in our community and it is very worrisome.<BR/><BR/>I am a painter and I have painted the station a few times. I really feel sad that it is slowing being destroyed.<BR/><BR/>It will, however, remain in our memories anyway.Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00242014772865144219noreply@blogger.com
