Well, after eight years of talks, consulting, etc, work has begun on the old DLD depot as of last week. They have begun tearing up the station platform at the south end of the station. This makes spotting the train interesting now! The platform will be rebuilt in three sections with it finally being raised eight inches higher. Soon (we hope) it will be safer to load/unload passengers here as the last step will no longer be so high. After the platform is complete, they will begin work on the roof and then the actual renovations inside the station. Now we see how long it takes them to actually do the work!! It seems to be going very SLOWWWLY so far!!! I am sure it will be a station to be proud of when it is done! More later.... OBS...
