This was actually in Auburn I believe, along Pinehurst Ave to the city line.

While a member of the Worcester Parks Commission I found several old postcards that were noted as Pinehurst park Worcester, MA. We researched this at the Parks Dept and could find no mention anywhere of such park in Worcester.

While researching info about defunct amusement parks in New England, I came across the same picture(from a postcard) of the rollercoaster at Pinehurst park. Apparently, the park, on the Auburn-Worcester line, was quite an attraction for folks around the turn of the (20th) century. Very little information exists about it today. It would be great if anyone with any info about the park could shed some light on the subject.

A good friend of mine lives on the worcester and auburn line and is sure he knows where pinehust park used to be. Located at the auburn town line where s.ludlow street in worcester becomes pinhurst steet in auburn is a cardboard box factory. If you take a rigt at the side of the box factory on a small dirt road heading tword burnett street, shortly past the truck parking area but prior to the old railroad tracks is apath into the woods that weaves its way through numerous old small foundations that were supposed to be parts of the old pinehurst park.

I used to go to school where this park was located. It is in Auburn around the Julia Bancroft school, which was built in 1917, so this park must have been really old!

I have a black & white Pinehurst Park, Worcester, Mass. postcard that may help, somewhat, in locating the park. It looks like the entrance was on a large, major street, with trolley tracks. The park appears to have had its own trolley stop. I am emailing the image for you to use, if you want to.
