Big Spring current image

Yes, nice work Mike.

 

Mr. Thompson is standing about a quarter mile downstream from the spring itself. Here is a google, road-side view of the spring.   <https://goo.gl/maps/KexCpS6d8QzvUbiC7> https://goo.gl/maps/KexCpS6d8QzvUbiC7

 

You can see some of the stone retaining wall that’s shown in the postcard.

We stoped in Elliston this afternoon and 







met Jim Thompson who owns Big Spring and was knowledgeable about the watercress going to market. He was gracious enough to let me take his picture. Also, I went about 500 feet north and shot where a local road crosses the tracks and a small building with a “salvaged” Train Station sign.

 

A small bridge over a creek should nail down the location for any trainmen that traversed this route.
