Just another frame from this great morning with some classic street running from a few weeks ago.
Here is the Juniata Valley Railroad heading east on Water Street with two cars for the big Standard Steel mill in Burnham. Leading the train in sharp PRR styled heritage paint is SW900 2106 blt. Nov. 1953 for the Pittsburgh and Shawmut Railroad as their number 236.
After leaving the yard and interchange with NS the line crosses the Juniata River then immediately enters Water Street for 3/10ths of a mile down the road. Lewiston also features a second stretch of street running on the Maitland Branch just east of the junction, but they didn't go that way today.
A bit of history from the North Shore Companies web site:
Today, Juniata Valley Railroad is an 18.5 mile short line that interchanges with Norfolk Southern in Lewistown, PA. JVRR delivers commodities that vary from scrap and finished metals to plastics, fertilizer and pulp. The infrastructure is owned by SEDA-COG JRA (Susquehanna Economic Development Association - Council of Governments Joint Rail Authority).
The Juniata Valley Railroad was incorporated in 1996 to assume from Conrail the operation of the three branch lines radiating out of Lewistown. These lines include remnants of the former railroads extending to Selinsgrove and to Milroy, and the branch to the West Mifflin Industrial Park. The Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) had been incorporated in 1846, to construct from Harrisburg to Pittsburgh. Three years later (1849) Lewistown became its first western terminus, and industry quickly developed due to the proximity of the Juniata iron ores.
The Freedom Forge at Burnham/Yeagertown had been producing pig iron from these ores since 1795, and was acquired by Andrew Carnegie in 1865. The Mifflin & Centre County Railroad (M&C RR) was projected to build northward through this iron belt, from Lewistown to Milesburg, in 1860. Construction began in 1863, and by 1865 the line extended only 12 miles to Milroy, there being no favorable route northward over Seven Mountains to Milesburg. The PRR leased the M&CC RR in May 1865, and for years handled enormous traffic to and from Burnham Steel Company, successor to the Freedom Forge. The north end of the line was abandoned in segments between 1976 and 1980.
Entrepreneurs also projected a line eastward from Lewistown to the Susquehanna River at Selinsgrove and Port Trevorton, incorporating the Middle Creek Railroad in 1865. Despite having constructed some roadbed, this line was waning by 1870. It was reincorporated as the Sunbury & Lewistown Railroad in 1870, opened from Lewistown to Selinsgrove, 43.5 miles, on December 1, 1871, and immediately leased by the PRR.
But the traffic was rural and the little line was foreclosed in 1874. It was reincorporated again in 1874 and immediately leased “by PRR interests.” Under PRR control, it served as an important shortcut for moving Wilkes-Barre anthracite westward, avoiding Harrisburg, and for moving perishables to New York markets via interchange with the Lehigh Valley Railroad at Mt. Carmel, avoiding both Harrisburg and Philadelphia. With the industrial decline of the 1950s, the middle of the line was taken up beginning in 1957. Conrail operated the line from 1976 until the Juniata Valley RR became the operator August 19,1996.

Barrow in Furness, 6M19, a Hoo Junction - Barrow Ramsden Dock freight is backed into the docks terminal on 12 August 1999 by 37676.
This train provided a connection between two Kimberly Clark Mills involved in the manufactures of tissues (Andrex, Kleenex etc) from diagonally opposite ends of England, Northfleet in Kent and Barrow in Furness. The management of EWS tried very hard to make wagonload pay (never mind environmentally sustainable full trainloads like this one) but this service unfortunately suffered poor rail connections at both ends. In common with most of British industry the papermills on the Northfleet embankment were rail connected but were allowed to wither away at this time.
Closure of Salthouse junction 'box in 1992 resulted - as usual - in a short sighted replacement that assumed all freight would come from the north. This meant that a freight from Carnforth could no longer run straight into Barrow docks but had to run round in Barrow CS, come back to the junction, release and operate the ground frame, reverse from the up to down line and then into the docks. Then bring the train here to facilitate road transfers to the Barrow Mill. EWS - despite some good intentions - added to the problem with late arrivals and poor quality stock. There were instances of van doors being difficult and sometimes impossible to open with some vans returning still loaded! So no-one was surprised that this traffic was lost to Rail. Ironically, and annoyingly the destination of the road transfers from Ramsden dock was Ormsgill four miles away, but right next to the Cumbrian coast line.
According to the ABP website at this time, around 60,000 tonnes of wood pulp per year is transported to Kimberly Clark by road from the port, though this now arrives by ship. Both the Barrow and the Northfleet mills still operate today but rail transport between them will never return.
37676 was sold on by EWS in 2007 to West Coast Railways and entered service just down the road at Carnforth the following year.

Remains of an old pulp mill in Harper's Ferry, W.Va.
There's not a lot left of this one. It was shut down during the Depression for lack of product demand, and then torn apart by a flood shortly after.
For ODC - Escape - guess he had a lucky escape he didn't end up in the Smoothie :)

Driving on route 340 at Campbellton, Notre Dame Bay, we were delighted to find this 100 year old ruin of the Horwood Lumber Company Pulp Mill. The mill was opened in 1914 and closed a year later after it was plagued with structural problems in the dam which supplied the power to it. The mill shipped just one load of pulp to New York during it’s short working life. On the far right of this shot, hidden under bushes, is the three metre wide concrete penstock which delivered the water from Indian Arm Brook to the turbine. Also on the right, hidden from view here, are three large cast iron pulp grinders which were powered by the turbine. The turbine also provided some electrical power for local usage.
