Remembering the Railroad in Colora

Posted on March 19, 2008February 19, 2013 by Mike

The Colora Civic Association has launched a series of programs called “Remember when,” which invites friends, neighbors, and anyone interested in the Colora area to come to a series of programs to share memories and discuss the village’s history.  On April 21 at 7:30 p.m. they have invited me to participate in a program on Remembering the Railroad, the Octoraro Branch.   In the program, I will show photographs associated with the line and help guide a discussion.  The purpose of the program is to have attendees share their memories of the railroad and to allow others to hear those stories. Bring your interests, memories, photos and memorabilia to share with your neighbors or just come to listen to the stories.  The program takes places at Mt. Pleasant Methodist Church.
