I found this photostream on Flickr with dozens of beautiful photos documenting the decay and disintegration of stations closed in the 1960 and 1970 in the UK. None of these are my photos (but how I wish they were). Image and link posted with owners consent.

Last time I was I visted the former POW camp in Bommanville myself and the rest of the group were greeted by..


yes, the fire department, police, and security and we were turned away...

Being a history buff, and Camp 30 being a signifigant piece of Canadian History I have been wanting to go back for awhile. This past Saturday was my chance!

Ohio, part of the area affectionately known as the "Rust Belt"... soooo many abandoned buildings, and in some cases, almost entire towns. Being a family vacation, I wasn't able to full explore as mush as I wanted to. But here's some of what I was able to see. I never went inside any of the properties, or trespassed on any land that was not public accessible.

An old barn...
