Cape Charles Light

Would love to see Cape Charles VA included in the collection.It is a steel skeleton light and sits opposite of the Cape Henry lights at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay.

Howdy Jkevin, and welcome to the forums.

I too would love to see Cape Charles, and I think it would be fitting to dothis light since the keepers quarters burned down last summer.

I "3rd" the motion.....and I honestly think that it would be a big-seller, as well!

I agree. Besides being another Virginia light to add to my collection, the design is different than most others.

Cape Charles light would be a very nice addition to the HL lineup. I remember returning from sea and of course, seeing Cape Charles on Smith Island to the starboard, and Cape Henry to the port. I knew I was going to be home soon! Here is a link to view Cape Charles light.

Thanks for the welcome.Have been Collecting HL for a year now and have 59 LE and ALWAYS want more.I live in Va Beach,actually just a few miles from Cape Henry light and didnt even hear about the keepers quarters burning down.

Welcome aboard, JKevin. Hey, good choice. I wouldn't be surprised if Harbour Lights had it on their "to-do" list. Probably not in 2001, but I could see it as a 2002 release. Easily.

Jkevin, the keepers house burned down back in July. I did a quick search and found this page. http://www.lighthousekeepers.com/forums/Forum5/HTML/000246.html

Thanks for the info.There was no report about it here in the local papers,which being so remote it was unlikely to get any coverage.I really enjoy reading the forums and looking foward to getting to know everyone.

Cape Charles , VA ............ Great Choice and there are plenty of pictures of the keepers quarters for it to be included.
Add my vote. Cape Charles is a winner

JKevin, great choice! Torchbearer, thanks for the link to the picture. Reminds me of Hillsboro.
