Unable to locate the apropos thread.
There are (many) others in NE, eg, New London, CT.

Portsmouth, NH
http://terraserver.homeadvisor.msn.com/ ... 2&z=19&w=2
http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?si ... V2glSRtQZ5

Worcester, MA
http://terraserver.homeadvisor.msn.com/ ... 0&z=19&w=1
http://www.mapquest.com/maps/print.adp? ... GapwSeI%3d

The mapquest photo links may require 'account'
(free) for access. The Worcester RH is due S of
'old' Amtrak station, fully converted to 'light
industries'. The Portsmouth one is almost
indistinguishable in THIS image (better in the
older ones, no longer available...). Structure
is (seemingly) 'abandoned', decaying. Brick,
3 stall. Pit, with turntable in place, remains.

Honorable Mention to Jewett, ME (Conway Junction,
as was), where a TT pit survives, signposted,
adjacent to Rt 236. (Rt 236 USED to be the
Eastern RR....). Pit invisible on aerial photos.

(There was ALSO a Conway Jct, NH, about 3 mi
away.. Both renamed, ca 1900.)
