Where Was I?
Author: icancmp193

On vacation with my parents in July 1965, I rode a bicycle across the small town to the railroad station. Nothing showed up (should have checked a timetable beforehand) but I took a picture anyway.

Some might think it "Florida-like" because of the powdery, white sand, Hint: RDC's!

A local beer distributor had a "Billboard" reefer parked by their establishment for many years, used for storage and/or advertisement. I think you can almost see it on the left side, near the end of the platform, in my crummy Brownie Starflash photo.

I don't know if it has powdery, white sand but didn't the island west of Vancouver, BC have RDCs?

The TO community often nails these things down within seconds and it has been 5 hours. It is Wildwood, NJ on the Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines (PRSL).
