[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by detective_cinderdick I did investigate the bus terminal today. No evidence of tracks but reminded me of another bus terminal at Ithaca NY for Cornell which also was a PRR Station. State Collage is growing and there are traffic jams that can be as bad as any major city. They are building parking decks but the streets are too narrow for light rail. A Monorail like West Virgina U. has would be a good idea here. There is a free bus service but the buses are packed here [/quote] The first Bellefonte Central depot in State College was located on College Ave at Fraser. Sort of where the Hammond Bldg is today. When they built the main power plant on College Avenue it was replaced by a new station on W. Atherton St. All coal for the power plant was brought in by rail. When they lost that contract it was over for the line . The original right of way from Bellefonte via Waddle came into town and crossed over W Atherton Street at W Cherry Lane. Then it looped behind the golf course and followed West College Ave into town. You can find a feed store near Corl Road and College Ave. It is located on the east side of West College Ave. and was served by a siding from the main. Sort of a building that would look good on a model layout. Look behind Clappers Hardware for the right of way.
