The New CP Bethlehem
Having been very much removed from my old stomping grounds in Eastern Pennsylvania, it's interesting to see how much railroading has changed in the area when I go back and visit.
Thanksgiving 2019 brought me to Bethlehem along NS's Lehigh Line where we find Lehigh Valley Rail Management working the river yard and, in the background, Norfolk Southern local H76 departing Allentown Yard. The interlocking here was reconfigured when the line was upgraded with PTC, adding in a new signal bridge and removing the old CP 88. LVRM operates trackage that once belonged to the Philadelphia, Bethlehem & New England Railroad.
