Leeds

Libby's Pit refers to the gravel pit on Blue Rock Rd., now owned by Pike Industries. It does not ship by rail any more but a small maintenance siding retained the name until recently. A section of Leeds dips into Leeds Junction, and a feed mill at North Leeds provides local egg farmers their feed. This feed mill does receive by rail.
