C.V.R.R. Washout Near Golf Course
Title
C.V.R.R. Washout Near Golf Course
Description
The spectacular 1927 flood in Vermont has been documented with hundreds of photos showing the devastation of towns throughout the state. Northfield has its own set of images of the destruction of homes and businesses in town. However, this particular photo catches the eye, as seeing these Central Vermont Railroad tracks south of town near the Northfield Country Club defy logic. Tracks hanging in place even as their foundation has been washed away!
