Trackage: 294 foot stub siding

The first station, a flag stop building, does exists.  It was moved just north of its original location and is being used as a shed.  Very well kept.

The second station remains on site.  It was used as Bay Pond Inc.’s offices as well as a station, now has been converted into a residence.

Photographs: I do have a few photos of the stations for Bay Pond in my collection.  These are available to be seen in person but I have agreed with the owners of the property that I would not post them here nor that they would be featured in my publication when it is printed.

Trackage: a passing siding north of the station existed at 554 feet in length
