Oct - 13 - Talk on the Railroad in northwestern Cecil County

The railroad once was an important transportation link for northwestern Cecil County. At depots in Rising Sun, Colora, Liberty Grove, Rowlandsville, and other places people came to hear the latest news, freight was handled, and passengers caught the train. The Historical Society of Cecil County, in cooperation with the Rising Sun library, will revisit this era in a discussion on Oct 13 at 1:00 p.m. at the library, which features photos, timetables, and other memorabilia. If you remember when the train rolled through these towns and villages, come and share your memories about this era.
