Had a lot of fun playing in that old tank. The unsuspecting motorists passing by had no idea they were in our crosshairs....<br />

Unfortunately, only 25% of the iron work collected was used for munitions and by 1944, much of it sat rusting in council depots or railroad sidings with some filtering through to the post war metal industry.<br />

The object of the scrap metal drive was to get people involved, not really to recycle metal. To that end, it worked.<br />

<br />
At the approach, we see the old bridge tollhouse on the left that was destroyed by the historic flood of 1936. The section closest to the bridge access ramp was demolished in 1955 when the new river bridge was opened.<br />
<br />
Lovettsville Tollhouse<br />
This is the bridge Tollhouse that was destroyed in 1930s by another historic flood. The Lovettsville Tollhouse is about 1/8 mile south on 287.<br />
<br />
Lovettsville Tollhouse collected tolls for the original Berlin TPKE built in 1852 between the river and 5-8 mikes further south to Bolington's tollhouse.where another toll road was built.<br />
<br />
Doris Kelley Barker<br />
Our area the Potomac River is usually calm but I believe it was 1936, I remember seeing it almost at the Square Corner. My grandfather, Pap Kelley had it almost covering his basement on Walnut Street. My Dad had to control him from going into that basement He could have been electrocuted. I remember the tracks were flooded around Dickerson, Md., and my dad drove there to pick up Galinda Baker and other people to bring them home where the train had to stop because of flooding. This picture has the river raging. <br />

I lived along the the Washington Branch and could lay in my bed and see in the cab of the Engine as it passed. Could also the conductor sitting in the caboose I was always looking for my Uncle Austin Hartman. If his train stopped there he’d jump down and come hug and kiss his Mom. Sounds of the trains are still a sweet memory for me.<br />
