They're Coming Offa the Wall

10/3/2016: Nittany & Bald Eagle 1603 and North Shore 2012 work their charge off 'the wall' on to Washington Avenue in Tyrone, PA on the former PRR Bald Eagle Branch. Owned by the North Shore System, the NBER runs some rather colorful power compared to the nearby NS mainline's usual fare--each of North Shore's locomotives wears a heritage-inspired paint scheme, in this case the Bellfonte Central and Erie Lackawanna. The bridge over 10th Street (just out of the shot to the left) was recently raised about 2 feet to improve clearance for trucks, resulting in the concrete caps on the original stonework elevation.

1603 is a GP8 built as Reading

#634, later Conrail # 5400.

2012 is a GP38 built for Penn Central.
