I see Amtrak is installing welded rail on the center track between Thorn and Glen Interlocking. I wonder if Amtrak is going to use the track and install it back to Paoli. Only to Glen. This gives them a way to get SEPTA trains or the NS local out of the way of Amtrak. It will be good for 60. I foun...

Any updates on installing the new signal system on the line?

Any progress on installing the new signal system from Park to Paoli. Haven't checked the area out in years. I might go down this summer.

Has there been any progress on the new signal system from Park to Thorn? I haven't been down that way in years. Asked on some Facebook group pages. But no answers.

Any progress on installing the new signal system east of Park Interlocking? I haven't been down in the section in years.

Are they going to install 80mph switches on the line? I read somewhere they were planning on installing them three miles east of Harrisburg. I think I read it on "Plan The Keystone".

The last two times I was at the former Irishtown crossing. The distant signals didn't go through their aspects. I know the train was past the next signal. I heard the Strasburg engine blow it's horn at the Amtrak train.

On the west end of the interlocking the signal showed slow approach then approach on a straight route. Why does the signal do that? I know what the aspects mean.

It's near the end of the video

Are they gonna be 30 or 45mph switches? And are they gonna install 80mph switches to the east? I forget where I read that. But I know it's a legitimate source.

Are they gonna use CPL signals there? I found this photo. But's it hard to tell what type of signal they are.

Anyone have photos or knows what Amtrak got done there at State? Last time I was there. Some concrete ties were installed.

I saw on Amtrak's website for a boarding platform change at Elizabethtown. It mentioned track improvements. Does anyone know what exact work is being done?

I'm gonna railfan this line in a few months. I like to get footage of a train passing an approach slow when heading west towards Summit. Does anyone have a map of the line where the signals are at? Did a search on Google. Nothing came up.
