Building off my previous posting, here's the 6690's sister unit 6691, seven years later - 11 June 1993 to be exact - working the aforementioned Shoreliner service, powering train 3644 at Branford CT in the late afternoon sun and shadows. This location would be unrecognizable today with concrete ties and overhead catenary resulting from the NEC electrification extension from New Haven to Boston.

Admired from a service station near the Georgia/Florida border.

Our family church in the countryside only has a service once a year. Many showed for it.

The Grand Valley Church and Cemetery are situated on land which, as of December 5, 1912, formed part of the Theodore Moe homestead. It is unclear as to exactly when or how the grounds became the property of the Lutheran Church, whether by purchase or as a gift, however, it is known that the Lutheran congregation was organized by Pastor Mons O. Waldahl on July 27, 1911. Also, that the first interment at this site, that of baby Emile Kabrud, took place in 1909; the most recent burial is listed in the Master File. Centennial celebrations for the Church & Cemetery took place on site July 24, 2011, with numerous people in attendance.

 

The Church, whose name was derived from the valley that runs along the north side of the church yard, was constructed in 1916, with a bell-cast spire on top of the steeple, typical of a number of Lutheran Churches in Sask. The windows and doors reflect the traditional Gothic style favoured by many prairie churches of all denominations. The legal description of the church is “Norwegian Lutheran Church of Canada, Title #102831072.” Prior to construction of the church, summer services were held in the loft of the barn on the Kabrud farm, and during winter services were held in member’s homes. The inside of the church remained unfinished for several years and when it was needed for meetings the inside was decorated with green branches, leaves, and moss. After synod boundaries were established, services were held every three weeks and if a clergy stayed over, accommodations were made available in private homes. By 1959, Viceroy, Verwood & Grand Valley became a three point parish sharing a pastor and the congregation was served from the parsonage in Verwood. Since 1961, the congregation continued meeting for a time at the Anglican Church in Scout Lake, then St. Allan’s Anglican and Wesley United in Rockglen, phasing out the parish about 1994.

 

Grand Valley Church was never updated with electrical power or water, so for special occasions these were provided by nearby homes, and in winter services were held in homes as it cost too much to heat the church. Though not adorned with fancy chandeliers, stained glass windows, or gold plated altars, the church was a welcoming place to all and there are still occasional weddings, baptisms and funerals held in the Grand Valley Church. At first Norwegian was used for services, but starting in the 1920s this gradually changed to English with the alternating of languages every other Sunday. The Confirmation celebration in 1929 was the last service to be held in Norwegian. Some of the original customs for church services included ladies sitting in the left side pews, while the men sat on the right. Hats were a must for the ladies, and no matter how hot it got on a prairie summer Sunday, the men were not allowed to remove their dress-coats or ties. Alas, due to a declining membership the congregation closed their country church in 1964.

 

The edifice was declared a Heritage Site on March 5, 1984, but the designation was not formally entered on the title until August 23, 2005 due to an oversight. About 1986/87, the church was completely restored and painted. Trees were also planted and a new all-around fence erected. In 2009, the church roof was re-shingled and in 2011 the outside was again painted along with a portion of the interior. The church and cemetery are well maintained through the support of many generous people who donate time and funds each year.

Thank you everyone for your visits, faves, and kind comments

Whilst at East Midlands Gateway the other week, a pic of 66760 which would work the last ever 4O19 2151 East Midlands Gateway - Southampton Western Docks. This set now forms the new Felixstowe service from East Mids itself. In the background a plane comes into land at East Midlands Airport. (Taken whilst on duty) 6/6/24.

This service station is obviously out of service. Its always sad to see a place like this. Why did they go out of business I wonder. How long ago were these pumps last in service. what kind of toxic waste is left below this building. and the southeastern US seems to have a lot of dilapidated and forgotten buildings. This was in northern Florida.
