In the region just south of Reading (e.g from Gilbraltar/Seyfert) down to Birdsboro, on the west bank of the Schuylkill, did the Reading Belt Line and the PRR Schuylkill division share tracks(e.g. Reading trackage rights on the PRR) , or did they each have their own right next to each other?
In modern aerial photos, you can see the abandoned PRR right of way north of this spot separate from the active Reading, but they merge together in this area.
If they shared, then I imagine a piece of the PRR Schuylkill division is still active in this stretch? Or was there a continuous stretch of the PRR that was abandoned?
