The Great Pumpkin Patch Express on the East Broad Top
On October 26, 2024, I went down to Rockhill Furnace to watch the East Broad Top Railroads 16 and The Great Pumpkin Patch Express. The fall colors are still around and the leaves are almost done falling off the trees and it made for a nice day of watch the 16 work. They have done a series of these trains over the past few weekends and this was the last weekend to see the 16 in action before the winter. We chased the first two trains of the day and was not disappointed. Relax and enjoy the sights and sounds of the East Broad Top Railroads 16 working in the hills of Rockhill Furnace.

B&P JB1 Night moves
Переглядів 15121 день тому
On a chilly night in October, Buffalo and Pittsburgh JB1 came into St. Marys yet again with stone for DuBrook concrete. I had a nice view of them at Daguscahonda with the sun almost set while they charged up the grade. Right at 7 pm they come into St. Marys and we watch them spot the stone hoppers. They leave town and I catch them one last time at Mohan Run as the rain starts coming down.

Aside from the normal 8 stone cars for Dubrook, 36 of the cars were asphalt tank cars that were brought into town for storage.

Buffalo and Pittsburgh JB1 Stone Profit

Its July 12, 2024 and were chasing Buffalo and Pittsburgh JB1 from St. Marys to Ridgway on a sunny and warm evening. Its not as common to see these trains go to St. Marys and they only bring trains into town as needed, so it is a great sight when they bring a train into town. We start off watching the train come into St. Marys with 10 loads of stone for DuBrook. The crew swaps out the empty loa...
Falling leaves and rising steam

Its October 28, 2023 and we're traveling around central Pennsylvania chasing trains. The leaves are almost done falling off the trees and the temperatures are slowing dropping. We lucked out with the weather in the beginning and the temperatures were warm. It made for a nice day of watching the trains working in the fall season. We start off with the East Broad Top Railroad 16 and The Great Pum...
Alcos and sand on the WNYP
Переглядів 2487 місяців тому
On March 26 2024, Western New York and Pennsylvania (WNYP) had Alcos put on the front of a sand train that originated in Olean, New York and went to Emporium. These trains would normally have their GE AC6000s but as they might be leaving the property soon, they had to see if the 4 axle Alcos could handle the sand trains. They definitely did not disappoint as they put on a pretty good show climb...

Stringline of 40 SPMX hoppers out of St.Marys

B&P JB1 leaving St.Marys with a stringline of 40 SPMX covered hoppers for Shell to carry pellets the morning of February 9th 2024. The cars had been sitting in St.Marys for about 2 years and BP had recently started pulling them out of storage all across the BP system. This will probably be the longest train out of St.Marys for a long time.
