Railfan Pictures of the Week - 12/15/2019 |
The fourth in a series regarding the changes around the Lansdale Cluster. |
Pennsylvania Northeastern Railroad Bethlehem Branch and Lansdale Yard Lansdale PA November 22 and 26 and December 4 2019 |
November 22 2019 For the first time, PN takes all three of its six axle units for a run up the Bethlehem Branch. |
The lineup: SD40-2W PN 5342, SD60 PN 8701 and C39-8 PN 8212. |
Alas, it did not last long as three days later, PN 8701 was on the bench again. From the looks of the front plow, it would appear to have been a trailing unit on a W230 run that followed the gel train. |
PN 8212 and 5342 were back to covering the runs, returning from Telford and pictured here approaching Central at Souderton ... |
and again at Orvilla in Hatfield. |
By December 4 2019, PN 8701 was not even in Lansdale and now PN 8212 was parked in the yard ... |
while PN 5342 handled the chores all by itself. |
