'Turnback Tuesday' features old photograph of today's Route 34

Turnback Tuesday has this incredible image of what we now call "Route 34." This was taken from Bradley’s Bridge looking north in the early 1900s. The road to the right by the two houses is Orchard Street.

The stone walls next to the tracks and Orchard Street are still there as well as the two homes.

Digital image donated by the Berman family.
