It's May Day 2007, and the work so far has been replacing parts of the existing configuration, but that will soon change, as will this view looking north from Broad Street. |
The next afternoon, SEPTA track department personnel got a head start on the weekend's work, taking the Bethlehem Running Track out of service in order to begin installing some of the new track panels that could be put in without interfering with the normal operations. |
A dump truck occupies the Bethlehem Industrial Track, as does the Swingmaster which will be used to move the panel in place. |
The Grad-All had just filled the dump truck with the old ballast (which it was dumping down near the Stony Creek Branch) and was prepping the roadbed for the new track. |
