A much shorter chase: CSX L042 on Pennsylvania Northeastern Railroad's Bethlehem Branch June 5 2024
 
CSX L042 has just come into Lansdale on the Bethlehem Industrial track, has cleared the Stony Creek Branch and CP Dale on SEPTA and is now on the Bethlehem Branch on the Bethlehem Running track, passing the yard and approaching the grade crossing at Cannon Avenue in Landale PA
About a mile up the line, L042 dropped its conductor and will pull past the switch just south of Schwab Road, crossing Schwab Road ...
and Orvilla Road.
Once it clears the switch, L042's conductor throws the switch so the cars can be shoved onto the siding, also referred to as the leased track.
Once the cars are on the siding, the power is then cut away and returns back to Lansdale Yard to wait for the evening run back to Woodbourne Yard.
