Those of you who were along on the CNE spring tour in April may remember the Pleasant Valley station painted in blue.  The paint was beginning to peel in spots and blue was not really the original railroad color.  The attachment shows the Pleasant Valley station on 14 August 2006.  It now has a fresh coat of yellow and beown which is more like authentic railroad colors.  The paint job is not completed yet.  You can see that the rain gutter and some of the roof braces are still blue.  The new colors are a big improvement over the faded and peeling blue.

The Pleasant Valley station is on the property of West Road School and is now taken care of by the Town of Pleasant Valley recreation department.
