Norfolk Southern and Amtrak in the Harrisburg Area

On Sunday September 22nd, 2024 we make our way to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania to do some railfanning in the area on several of Norfolk Southern's lines in the are including the Pittsburgh Line, Port Road Branch, and the Lurgan Branch. We also got a bonus of an Amtrak Keystone Service train at Middletown, Pennsylvania. However, the majority of the action came on the Pittsburgh Line with several spots including the famous Rockville Bridge, Shermans Creek, and the curve along the shore of the Susquehanna River at Duncannon.

Great video of this area, I used to run around there years ago, and I should really go back given I live less then 45 minutes away to the south. I really like the catch of 650 coming out of Enola Yard. Normally empty coal trains comes of D or G track and gets staged at CP-banks until the crew comes, but giving this train had a rare power setup they would have a hard time getting the train going up the grade and onto the main line.
