Railfan Pictures of the Day - 12/31/2009
| East Penn Bethlehem Branch Telford, Sellersville and Perkasie PA December 22 2009 |
| Part One is here. |
| Waiting for B738 just north of Washington Street in Telford was ESPN B23-7 3153, which had just brought down out of storage trash flat cars and sulfur tank cars. |
 |
| B738's power cuts off its train at Washington Street and pulls onto the middle track to clear ... |
 |
| and 3153 couples up to take the train north. |
 |
 |
 |
| After grabbing a quick lunch in Telford, 3153 heads north toward Sellersville, passing some of the many cars now in storage between Telford and Quakertown. |
 |
 |
| The covered hoppers and trash gondolas on Track 1 stretch all the way from Telford to Perkasie, as storing cars has become the primary business of the East Penn Railway. |
