My husband leased and farmed the land directly beside the tracks at this point and down to the private crossing at Emado Road. I never ceases to amaze us that it has not gone up in a giant conflagration that would surely melt the rails!!! Tommy the Rocket DeLa Rosa retired from the Starlight in 2000 and just before he died in '06 he asked us if it was still there!! Yes, it is privately owned and full of junk and just waiting for a spark!!
