LV C-628 location

Hey BlockLine -

That's the CNJ-LV connection at Lehighton, with the engine comming off the connection onto the LV. This was installed as part of the 1970'a track consolidation. It is THE only main line now (NS), and the bridge to the left (CNJ) is gone, as is the tower (LV) and the LV main to the right.
