Is this a game of "spot the changes?"

- Foundation is block now, was field rock
- Chimney details are lost to time & rebuilding
- The 'away from the track' side has a porch now that wasn't there then
- Roofing material differences
- Telegraph pole versus none
- Cinders are cleaner.....

In a slightly more contemplative vein, it's a very good example of the "grandpa's axe" problem applied to buildings. I love the fact that the C&TS has been able to keep these intact, but there has also been a lot of loss of original fabric. Better to restore IMO!
