Some beautiful weather lately, this is a great time to come out for the Wine Train, the Great Pumpkin Train, and the Corn Maze Train. I was there just a couple of days ago, the corn is 8 feet tall and ready to test your directional skills! The Fall foliage is absolutely beautiful along this line & October is just around the corner.....
A couple of shots from this past weekend, when the New York, Susquehanna & Western Technical & Historical Society hosted their annual meeting & picnic. This year's meeting featured a tour of the new shop facilities; the building is done with one track complete and the second track nearing completion. This year's festivities featured a 4-caboose hop from Lehigh Junction to the shop, then back out onto the main to DCS Snyders (5 miles south) for the meeting & picnic.
