SEPTA/CSX Stony Creek Branch East Norriton PA NS Abrams Yard Harrisburg Line Upper Merion PA Pennsylvania Northeastern Railroad Lansdale Yard Lansdale PA September 17 2012 |
|
Another dawn, another CSX work train on the Stony Creek Branch, this time loaded with equipment for the rail gang and hauled by a trio of EMD four axle power, the only power trusted to run on the decrepit line (decrepit now, but evidently not for long). |
 |
| Lunch time and the local power for Abrams is shuttling around the yard ... |
 |
| about to pull cars out of Heavy Yard and head out as H3A. |
 |
| Evening, and in the nearly golden light, the CSX engines have made it up to Lansdale and parked for a few hours until a new crew is sent up to bring them and any outbounds from the Pennsylvania Northeastern back down to Woodbourne via SEPTA, of course. |
 |
| CSX power in the yard, feels like the good old days (which were just a year ago). |
