Autorack switching onto the PL&E |
Description: |
A lot going on here. The train is leaving the old B&O, which contiunes to the left, and is entering the old P&LE. CSX sold the old B&O throught Pittsburgh to the AVR. What a loss because that segment of line has an old B&O tower (JW at Glennwood) and several working B&O CPLs. Above the first autorack the Kennywood Rollercoasters can be seen. |
