FALLS JUNCTION, OHIO STATION TO BE MOVED...
Crews are busy surveying the site of the Falls Junction, Ohio passenger
station, located along trackage owned by the Wheeling & Lake Erie Railway.
According to one of the crewmembers, an assessment is being made to check on
the feasibility of moving the station diagonally across the tracks to a
location adjacent to an old general store.
The station would be moved by truck and be kept intact, where it would house
a portion of a new historical district in Falls Junction. Property in which
the station currently stands is owned by BFI and they would like the station
removed. Instead of tearing it down, they have given the town the option of
preserving it, albeit off of their property. -with information from Rob
