Davisville Yard The Davisville yard is located around Davisville Station, which is actually located in the middle of the yard (in the north-south direction). The yard was opened in 1954 and until 1966 when Greenwood yard opened was the place where all the trains were stored. After Wilson yard opened, most of the trains were moved there and the Davisville was not as important as it once was. In the 1990s, the yard was mostly used to store equipment that was destined for the scrapper. Here is a plan of the property as well as the floor plan of the car house. |
