Parlor car re-railed |
Description: |
The able-bodied train crew with help from some able-bodied passengers were able to lift the parlor car back onto the rails by hand. We pushed the parlor bar backwards to the first grade crossing (about 200 yards) where some rail jacks and crow bars were delivered by Stewartstown RR volunteers. We used the parlor car to deliver the re-railing tools to the derailment site. |

Across the big fill at Anstine |
Description: |
This was originally built as a high timber trestle. It was replaced by fill as the bridge timbers deteriorated. The bridge timbers are still down there, buried now. |

Flagging the Waltermyer School Road upper grade crossing |
Description: |
We were one a pretty stiff up-grade at this point. I'll estimate 2-plus percent. |

I'll venture a guess that they were surprised to see our little speeder train pass by on this seldom-traversed section of the railroad. |
