Western Massachusetts Local History

 

Click the picture to learn about the Mt Tom Railroad, and how it led to the development of Mountain Park.

 

I picked this up at the auction when they were selling off the rides. It sure was a sad day to see the park closed!

I took this picture in Holyoke Ma , near High Street. They had just taken down a building that exposed this 4 story tall sign.

The building this sign was on  was taken down shortly after the picture was taken, sometime in the early 1970's.
