Final northbound passenger train of the day crosses the large fill just south of Shirleysburg, Pa, crossing over Runk Road.
EBT Pogue Bridge crossing Aughwick Creek, built by American Bridge Company of Philadelphia in 1904. Sure hope my next pic shows a restored bridge with a steam engine on it.
Back in 2005, who would have known the direction the East Broad Top would take over the next 17 years. Here a charter rolls south toward Rockhill Furnace from Cottage Grove in the rain looking like the early 50's
October 21, 2005.
The East Broad Top is alive and well after a decade of dormancy. Newcomer to the excursion era, EBT 16, is now the pride of the fleet. I sure do look forward to what this new management team will accomplish and wish them nothing but the best!
I have to admit, I did not expect to ever be back here. And I definitely did not expect to be back here wearing a mask.
Anyhow...Millie, M-1, and #15 convene in front of the station at Orbisonia. Pete Lerro did a nice job lighting up the headlights, and had his guys drop a bunch of smoke bombs down the stacks. It was almost like old times, except for the conspicuously-missing aroma of coal smoke. In a year or two the smoke bombs won't be needed anymore; I know I'll be back.
EBT 16 comes south towards Rockhill Furnace passing a house/field that politely asked people to stay off their property during the railfan event. A very good example to set.
Op 14 September 2024 , kon ik op het station van Olten de EBT-102 vastleggen met een museum trein .....
The white walls on Millie, EBT 12, hide in the shadows of the roundhouse at Rockhill. The Baldwin Mikado turns 105 years old this year.
After a quick stop at the newly reinstalled water plug, #16 heads through the yard at Orbisonia past the restored sand tower. There is pretty much nothing here to distinguish this scene from the same scene in the 1940s or 50s,
