Gettysburg

Was in Gettysburg yesterday, and whilst there observed boxcars in town, and shiny rails on the tracks that were the "unfinished railroad," in the cut where there was considerable loss in July, 1865.....anyway, what railroad is that, what motive power does it have, is it a daily operation? Does it connect with one of the anxiety ?

Not sure exactly what you saw, but the Gettysburg & Northern does, as the name suggests, run from Gettysburg to the north.
