Blueberry Express #6 Traditional Cache

Blueberry Express #6

This is part of a series of 13 caches on the old rail trail that can be walked or cycled. Parking is available at: Exhibition Street, N45 05.206 W064 30.475; Lanzy Road N45 05.592 W064 30.348, Brooklyn Street N45 05.004 W064 30.543.

The collapse of the apple industry after 1945 and the growth of paved roads eroded traffic in the 1950s. After several years of poor application, the DAR abandoned most of the subdivision. Tracks north of Mill Village (Steam Mill) at Mile 2.2 to Kingsport and Weston were abandoned on January 31, 1961. The remnant of the subdivision became Spur Track D of the DAR serving Camp Aldershot and the feed mill and fertilizer plant at Mill Village.
