As my job search continues I've had some extra time to explore the area around Frederick. Point of Rocks, Maryland, is an actual town named after a geographical spot where the mountains come down to the Potomac River. Lots of interesting Civil War era skullduggery took place here!
Today Point of Rocks is a very small town, as a newer and more useful station was built a bit to the north in Brunswick. The station building itself remains though, and it's a beautiful Victorian thing that's only used for storage. The building is defunct, but it's still a working light rail station that will take you to Silver Spring, Maryland (D.C., basically) or the other way up into West Virginia.
