Using the ASM.transit.com web page, I watched Amtrak’s Pennsylvanian <\/em>make eastward progress on the Main Line. The sun crept over the hills to the east of where Kris and I were waiting. When the train was 25 minutes east of Johnstown, I said, “We should be seeing a headlight soon.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My composition was based on the late-season foliage on the far side of the three-track mainline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I didn’t know that PRR-Tuscan red Pullman Colonial Crafts<\/em> was tied to the back of the consist, but I was delighted to catch this vision of the earlier era on the roll. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s always a pleasant surprise to see something like this without anticipation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next move was just trash\u2014literally. Stay tuned!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
