Olyphant, Pennsylvania
Delaware-Lackawanna C425 2457 leads a quartet of ALCOs northward on a pleasant late Fall morning in Pennsylvania's Wyoming Valley. The twin double-track through-truss bridges are reminders of past glory, when this was the Delaware and Hudson mainline and anthracite coal/bridge traffic kept the railroad busy and prosperous. Fracking sand traffic represents the bulk of the traffic on the Carbondale Line these days, with Linde operating a substantial facility in the former yard facility between Carbondale and Simpson.
