NS 2752 wb 23Z-15 (Croxton,NJ to Chicago-Englewood,IL) Lewistown, PA 5-16-2017.

Van train 23Z passes the old PRR station at Lewistown as well as CP-Lewis. A new PTC antenna tower is behind the locomotive (the odd looking antenna out of loco roof).

 

The station has been preserved by the Pennsylvania Railroad Technical & Historical Society and serves as the Society's archives. The Society has spent a considerable amount of funds to restore the station including the tower portion (which was torn down long ago), roof, archiving systems, fire and burglar alarm systems.

 

The station waiting room is opened when the Amtrak Pennsylvanian trains stop to handle their passengers.
