Interesting seeing all the horse drawn wagons and buggy's considering that we are not that far in the future from that mode of transportation,,

Still a lot of horse drawn equipment out there,

Only with the development of the internal combustion engine and the discovery of oil did things change after hundreds of years.

100's of years? Okay maybe 200 years or round about there.....oil in the US was in the mid-1800's and I think the 1st commercial internal combustion engine was around the time of the Civil War. Almost contemporaries......... Lot of interesting things were invented thanks to that war.....

But I don't think everything was necessarily completely static prior to that time.

I can't think of the correct terminology but throughout history a "discovery" seems to have a slow start for a time, then a big boom followed by a longer
dying period and a new "discovery" takes place and it starts over with the new one. The older ones may never disappear completely.

Those are some serious steps going up to the track

Those aren't steps. Those are the ends of the stone underpass portal supports for the 2 roads under the track.

In Berwick, Pa - residence of Judge Evans

Classic. Giant numerous windows for the passage of air, and a great-porch for sitting and observing the neighbors walking by on their inspection of the latest features and condition of their community.

I'm not sure we have anything socially comparable in contemporary USA , unless cellphones and laptops have some particular interaction available, but nothing like a broad porch and a walk in da 'hood, huh.

Houses like that are still about in south central PA; maybe move to one sooner than I ever thought before.

Neat little station that could be modeled....
