Prospect, VA Depot in the news

[NW Mailing List]

Well, when they are gone they are gone.  How much is too much, and will the next 
generation appreciate the effort?  I wrestle with all these thoughts, but my 
feeling is that 20 years from now whatever price we pay will be looked at as 
insignificant. We don't even think about the towns that let their depots slip 
away but we all enjoy seeing the rebirth that is taking place around our 
restored depots in Marion, Pulaski, Bristol, and many more I don't even know 
about.

I agree that saving the poor Prospect Depot seems a stretch. Meanwhile the 
Boones Mill station is much better condition but is in danger of being torn 
down.
