Pulaski Frisco Gone

This is at Mile Post 129 on Dixon Hill. It's a small community of perhaps a dozen homes named after a Frisco employee named Frank who worked there. His job was to control switches for the two passing sidings there - reduced to one after the 1945 hill regrading. I think the remaining passing siding was removed about 10 years ago. There was a country store there during the 1950-70s that featured monthly music parties on Saturday nights - by invitation only - it was even taped for a TV show once. The store burned sometime in the 1980's. These photos are from an earlier structure, I think.
