Hello all,
I am looking for information and photographs of Stemmer's Run station. A station that was built around the early 1900's. It is located at mile marker 87 on the NEC and is about 8 miles outside of Baltimore City, Maryland. It was used possibly by the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore railroad. It was used for sure by the Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington railroad and later by the Pennsylvania railroad.
There were two structures , a wood two story house structure which I have only seen as a sketch in Charles P. Dares "The Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad guide book" published in 1853. The other is a one story brick structure that still stands (barely) which I have only found two photographs, one in black and white and the other in sepia. The b/w has the classic red and gold keystone sign, while the sepia has a "green background and rounded edges. I still have not figured out any information about the rounded edge sign.
Thank you for your time,
-Steven
