Hi All:

Took a ride by Boyertown last Saturday. Posting a few shots here. I note they pulled up the side track they used to unload the covered hoppers on, as well as the house they used to park the spare engine on.

I wonder when/if anything is really going to happen with this line. To be honest, a tourist train linking Pottstown/Schuylkill River Trail with Boyertown might actually do some good business if done properly...
