Horseshoe Curve is a bowl like part of the mountain
where the Norfolk Southern hugs the side of the mountain near Altoona, PA. Horseshoe
was on the radar of the Nazi�s, they tried to blow it up during the war. The
park is well kept by the Railroaders Museum. There is a admission charged plus
a restoration fee that is collected upon entering. Some railfans
don�t like the charge and wish that the area stayed free like the old days. I
like the layout, but, I too think that the area should be maintained as a free
area. Below are some of the shots that we took on a recent visit.
That�s just a taste of the Curve,
you will have to explore it for yourself soon. My wanderings will continue
soon.
