Hayes Pit
Mile 37.3[1] on the Truro Subdivision near Burtons
This gravel pit was served by a DAR spur and used to provide ballast on the Truro Subdivision.[2] The same quarry provided aggregate for the construction of the Selma airfield. It was located near Burtons, about three miles west of South Maitland at what is today known as the Andy Hayes Road.
