About Derry trainyards / former station
Derry’s trainyards occupy the industrial edge where Neibolt Street ends and the Barrens begin. A weed-grown parking area lies at the street terminus, while multiple tracks converge on the grounds of the former station. The yards also adjoin the old coal and gravel pit beyond the city dump, tying together the Neibolt corridor, the rail approaches and the rough open terrain below town. They are mapped as a connected rail complex rather than as a single building or platform.
Why this pin is marked A
Named in the novel. The street or the site is named in the text; the exact lot is the atlas’s.
Level A follows from several mutually reinforcing anchors: Neibolt Street ends at the yard parking area, six tracks are described as converging near the old station, and the rail property borders the Barrens and the abandoned pit. These facts securely place the complex relative to other mapped features. The precise track geometry, sidings, platform positions and historical property line are not provided. Those details are illustrative, while the endpoint and neighbourhood relationships are the dependable part of the reconstruction.
