The  ongoing restoration of the vintage Hinton train station is progressing   
with phase 3 nearing completion. This involves the installation of  an  
underground drainage system for the century-old brick  structure.


    I had the occasion to wait at this station for an  Amtrak train in 1993.  
At the time, I remarked that the waiting room seemed  not to have changed at 
all in 100 years!  I really had the sense that  I had been transported back to 
the 19th Century!
