Great beautiful day here in Georgia so thought I would take a shot at locating old aerial photographs from other States.

Here are photographs of this famous board track.

Also, here is the link for others that are interested in perhaps trying to locate other former facilities in Pennsylvania. I only have so many free hours and the wife is beginning to look at me funny! :rotfl:

Play with this a bit and you will catch on fairly quick.

Don't know how to make it visible, but I think I found Pottsville aka Cressona aka Schuylkill Haven, a dirt half-mile. It appeares to actually be in the latter town/village.
