Last week, the Wilmington & Western Railroad broke ground on a new 5000-square-foot educational and administrative building in Wilmington, Del.

The facility is part of the railroad's $10 million campaign to rebuild after the Wilmington & Western was destroyed by the remnants of Tropical Storm Henri in 2003.

The non-profit tourist railroad had delayed construction of the new building until a 10.2-mile line was completely rebuilt from Greenbank to Hockessin, Del., and other essential work was completed.

The educational/administrative building has been in the planning stages for more than three years.
