So essentially from the photos I have seen the lead end car is not actually a locomotive but also has passenger seats in it as well, so it seems more like a multiple unit type of train rather than a locomotive hauled train, and do you think there will be a lead unit on both ends to be bidirectional ...

Well the old CNJ tunnel north of White Haven according to my search is about 4,600 ft long and I don't think there's ever been any improvements to that, it seems like it was the same it was built in the 19th century.

The used to be much grander depot at 3rd & Townsend, classic architecture, that was torn down in the early 70's, and they moved to a new station one block up

That's the track that heads to and over the Susquehanna river bridge of the old Bloomsburg branch of the DL&W.
The Luzerne Susquehanna shop is a few blocks to the south via the left track, and they normally store engines in this area.

Going south out of Taylor Yard, there are two main tracks on the same ROW, the westernmost track can be considered the Bloomsburg branch, and the other track the CP line. Near Davis St. the ROW separates into two separate lines, with the Bloom being the more westerly ROW. Just to the south, the CP l...

From Sunbury to just above the former Buttonwood yard area, it follows the old PRR line. Just north of Buttonwood it continues over what was known as the Wilkes-Barre Connecting railroad. This has two bridges over the Susquehanna, from South Wilkes-Barre into Kingston, and then from the north end of...

Would you ever consider making Youtube videos of your completed routes so that some of us others can enjo...
