A rare photo of the Hockanum Ferry docking on the Northampton Bank circa 1890s.

Mt.Tom Railroad - Turn Near Upper Station
Looking up the Mt.Tom Railroad near the turn to Upper Station early 1900s. This photo was taken just above where the present day B-17 Memorial is located.
The turn was the result of William Stiles Loomis' decision on saving some trees that were in the railroad's original path to the Station. (Seminole Bailey Archive)
