Gloomy East Broad Top. An lonely, almost ghostly EBT Mikado reverses through the morning mist toward the south switch, in preparation for a run to Mt. Union. I could wax poetic about the history of the place, the current state of affairs and the prospects for the future, but I'm not sure I could ever convey the mood as well as this scene does. I guess if you have to put it in terms of human expressions, one great big sigh does the job.
A look at the one-time coal-hauler, which ran as a tourist railroad for decades and finally ceased operations in 2011. The album includes photos from an October 2010 charter as well as images from the very last Fall Spectacular in October of 2011.
