Former PRR at Railroad, Pennsylvania

‘What’s the name of this town?’

‘Railroad, Pa.’

It’s aptly named; the old Pennsylvania Railroad Northern Central route goes right through it.

Kris and I had wandered here after leaving Stewartstown. I made a few photos in the village of Railroad, before we headed north along the Northern Central line, now operated by a tourist railroad called the ‘Northern Central Railway.’

Five minutes out of town we spotted a southward NC Ry excursion train on the move with an old Pennsylvania Railroad GP9 leading an eclectic mix of cars.

We zipped back to Railroad and I made a few photos of the train using my Nikon Z7-II and Kris’s Fuji XT-4.
