Railfan Pictures of the Week - 9/14/2014


Pennsylvania Northeastern Bethlehem Branch Lansdale PA August 2014
 
The second trip of the day departs with a trail of smoke from the hard working GE locomotive.
The Tiger Lady passes the former CN GP9RM 7210, which as PN 7210 may soon be working the branch, especially needed for the tight curves of the Soap siding.
Approaching Schwab Road, the hulking C39-8 starts belking smoke ...
as it digs hard up the grade out of Lansdale.
As they cross Schwab, 8211 takes a moment to catch its breath until the next climb on this line with a roller coast profile.
