Coming Down Through Town
Title:  Coming Down Through Town
Description:  The RJC-1 rolls through downtown Ashville, PA, on its way to the Fallen Timber loadout. It's a busy shot...but what a neat scene! Unfortunately, showers moved in quickly after this, and we were done for the day before the train was loaded for the run back to Cresson. We retired back to town to drink beer. Later that night, we headed back to the grade to watch and listen to the EMD's lift 58 cars of coal up the grade--what a great way to end the weekend!

Working Clearfield Yard
Title:  Working Clearfield Yard
Description:  A nice catch at the end of the day was RJC-2, a Clearfield-based RJ Corman crew, building a train for interchange in the former NYC yard in Clearfield. Once together, this train will travel the "WBV" line (West Branch Valley, former NYC trackage) down to the juction at Keating on the Buffalo Line, where the traffic will be handed off to NS. The ethanol plant is in the distance on the left of this frame.

A New Face
Title:  A New Face
Description:  ...For me, at least. According to a local railroader, Savage provides contract switching for some local businesses. They certainly have a catchy paint job!
