    I love how there are no stripes on the road.

    In 1939, this is what rush hour looked like.

    WHAT is being done at Copperhill TODAY? The railroad is still there but looks as if it needs repairs; but, is any sulphuric acid coming from there today?
  • Red Necks know stuff said:
    Acid production stopped in 2001 at Copperhill. The company is still in operation today selling iron calcine that was produced in the 1970's - 80's and stockpiled. The rail yard and line belong to a Heritage tourism group who run passenger excursion over the "Old Line" and lease the yard for rail car storage.

    Today's photo is several months (or years?) before the March 1956 one that Google found above. See the gardens in the houses bottom left, etc.

    I like the puffer train at left.

    The factory and Cement Company's Siding are marked on the 1930s 6"OSI map, as well as an Aerial Ropeway to quarries some 3km away.

    The ropeway seems to have survived until the 70s, the siding is gone, too.

    I see the pylons for the ropeway in todays pic, but they are all gone in Streetview.
