what is left at Hollidaysburg, specifically on the tracks alon Route 22(?). I remember being there about 9 years ago, and it was a veritable who's who of the pre-Conrail era in relation to stored rolling stock. Any info, or if someone has a site dedicated to Hollidaysburg shops and storage, please let me know. Thank you.

I drove by the shops a few months ago and the tracks were pretty bare. I believe that the tracks in the immediate area are actually operated by a shortline with NS having trackage rights.

I pass through this area about once a year when travelling to/from my boyhood home in northwest Pennsylvania. Two associated railroads have taken over this former Pennsylvania trackage-The Everett Railroad and the Hollidaysburg and Roaring Spring.
