After seeing Steve Carlson's photo of DL&W RS11 1804 at East Stroudsburg yesterday, I had to go check and see if I had uploaded all my shots from the two times I've gotten the RS11 on the Pocono Main. Here we have PT-98 cresting the grade at Pocono Summit in a splash of sunlight on a trying afternoon, with 1804 leading 3642, 3000 and 211.
Having just picked up grain loads off the NS at Portland, PT-97 ducks under the old Lackawanna Cutoff viaduct on its way back north to home rails.
After meeting the PO-84 at Winton, PO-74 runs east past Elmhurst with the 3007 leading two of the road's 6 axle MLW products.
DL PO-84 was sent out ahead of the PO-74 to pick up empties from the grain mill at Pocono Summit, and is returning west for Scranton at Elmhurst, PA. They'll soon meet the PO-74 at Winton, which will then come east for Slateford.
some turn up their noses, and some don't turn up at all :-)

Delaware-Lackawanna's C636 3642 was pulling past the former Lackawanna tower in Tobyhanna while dealing with propane and propane accessories.
It's always a productive day on the Delaware-Lackawanna.
DL PO-74 has arrived at Pocono Summit with a quintet of the companies ALCOs on the point. With mostly grain cars for Ardent Mills behind them & only a few hours left to work, the crew will take only the grains cars & work Ardent Mills before calling it a day.
Also having the companies 2 Erie Lackawanna C425s on the point was an added bonus since they would have ran on this line regularly back in the 60s & 70s. 10-19-21
PO74 heads up into the poconos with 3 MLWs viewed from the Erie Jessup Branch. They would make a pick up at Winton shortly after passing here and continue east to the Delaware Water Gap
A couple swans swim around the shore of Pocono Summit Lake while the PO74 picks up grain at LAKE siding.
