Maryland Junction Today - A View of the Knobmount Approach On May 1 2004 I had the pleasure of touring what is left of Maryland Junction, Ridgeley Yard and Knobmount Yard with my friends Gerald Altizer and Doug Yoder. One of the great views we had was that of Knobmount yard as seen from the side of Knobley Mountain. If you find the information here useful or enjoyable, please be sure to drop me a note in my guestbook.

This is the lookout we went to

Here's the view from the lookout. You can barely make out the bare area that is the former location of Knobmount yard.

Here is a satellite photo of the area

Here is a topographic map of the area centered around the Cumberland fair grounds.
