The 1:45PM passenger starts to climb up grade to Douglas Summit with Jacks Mountain in the background.

Engineer, Thomas Holder, looks back as he backs EBT 15 through the yard in a scene that can easily represent 1916 not 2006. There is one detail that gives the difference away, can you find it?

EBT 15 and passenger train charges up grade before reaching McMullins Summit, the highest point on the East Broad Top north of Rockhill Furnace.

EBT 15 leads the first train of the day across an open field heading North to Colgate Grove.

EBT 15 puts on quite a show leaving Orbisonia with the first run of the day.

EBT 15 leads the 11 AM excursion through the S curve and out onto the fill at Runk Rd through a field of wild flowers.

The first train of the day makes it's return trip to Orbisonia on a beautiful first day of October.

EBT Mikados 15 and 14 await the morning's assignment.

#15 and 14 lead the photgrapher's coal special past a few houses right off of Rte. 522.

Passing a classic cast iron crossing sign, the fireman on 15 gives the chasers a wave as he enjoys the ride back to Orbisonia aboard the doubleheaded coal train.

Struggling on the wet rails, EBT 15 put on a great smoke show as it passes under a farmer's driveway bridge as it nears the top of McMullen's Summit.

As seen from the center of the Runk Rd. bridge over Aughwick Creek, EBT 15 is framed perfectly as it sails over the Long Fill on its way back to Orbisonia.
