Image Alienation Nation. SFTM owned former B&M boxcar used for storage of car restoration materials and track tools. Located in Buckland/Shelburne Falls rail yard. "Alienation Nation" was a joint effort of SFTM and The Art Bank to utilize local youth in a box car art project. As you can see our local youths have many fine ideas about life in outer space and believe that number 10 has a place in the glaxy as well. The other side has yellow background and depicts dinosaurs times. Picture taken in October 1995 by yours trolley. (Tony Jewell)

Image Buckland/Shelburne Falls rail yard from the SFTM eagle eye. Shot in June of 1996. The large building on the upper left is the 100 plus year old Boston and Maine Shelburne Falls freight house. "Alienation Nation" boxcar is on the bottom to the left of the freight house. The rail yard, which is currently leased by the SFTM from Norm Sessions, present owner of the company that bought and scrapped the trolley line back in 1927, is the home for our museum. Our restoration barn for number 10 was constructed on the side of the building on the upper right. Construction started 9/9/96.
