You may remember that Ed and I recently visited Derry and also did some
photo scouting on the West Penn.

One of the shots was at the west end of Jeannette. 3 buildings were behind
(was it a line car, or a freight car, or something else? I don't
remember), and in the foreground, closer to the photographer than the
street, was a low hedge.

That day, the 3 buildings looked more or less just as they did 50 years
ago.

This past weekend I visited Jeannette for a birthday party. The rightmost
of the buildings was rather flat and splintery. 

Take a picture before it's gone. I wish I had, that day.
