Erieau or Pettycoat Junction?

Hello Historic Erieauians,
Check these old Post Cards I found in the "Legg's Family Archives". These vignettes of Erieau life even preceed my days at EPS or the Tilt'n Hilt'n . Sadly, I don't really know the story of our village but the train used to transport coal and people to the big metropolis Chatham .... I guess the train died out not because of the modern use of cleaner, more efficient fossil fuels but because, why would anyone want to leave Erieau to go to Chatham?
