Remarks & Notes 
On a bitterly cold early spring day Strasburg 90 (newly acquired from the Great Western) and High Iron Company 127 (ex-CPR 1278, later of Gettysburg Railroad boiler explosion infamy...thanks for confirming that Mitch) doublehead a High Iron Company excursion north out of Jim Thorpe on the CNJ. I believe that is the Lehigh Valley mainline on the other side of the river. I wonder how much of the trackage shown in the picture still exists, and who operates it....not to mention the turntable. Corrections on the above info are welcome, since it has been a long time and I'm writing this from memory.
