In the past several days, there's been some heavy equipment (R.J. Corman, I'm told) pulling up rail on this long-abandoned RoW, likely in preparation for extending the rail trail in Lebanon County. As of today, this equipment is sitting near the former grade crossing on PA 72 south, adjacent to the former RoW of the Cornwall & Lebanon RR (later part of PRR and PC).

It's sad to think back to the not-so-distant past when Lebanon was served by three railroads.
