The Historic Jefferson Railroad

Below is a recent photograph of the land the Sewer Authority is attempting to condemn.

The old railroad embankment you are viewing in this photograph has very significant value with the areas local history.  It runs parallel to Krafts Mill Road just on the North side of Jefferson, directly across from the Rebert homes. 

President Lincoln traveled this railroad twice; once while he was on his way to give the Gettysburg Address.  People came by the hundreds from as far away as Hanover, PA to view the train as it passed through.  Are we really going to let the Sewer Authority cause destruction to this?  Please contact the York County Historical Society and express your concerns in this matter.
