R&E Shelter 116

R&E Shelter 116 http://www.friendsoftherailroad.org/FORR/R%26E_Shelter_116.html In December 2009, through a generous gift of the Giancursio family, the Friends of the Railroad acquired Rochester & Eastern Rapid Railway Shelter #116. Shelter #116 was moved and restoration begun in May, 2011. We need your donation to continue to purchase materials and for site preparation. If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation or want to volunteer to work on this project, please email a note to Pat Palomaki at pat@palomaki.org, or call 585-742-8037.
