Switcher Saturday - LV 120
Author: refarkas

Lehigh Valley 120 is in an unknown location in the summer of 1973. The clean windows give a surprisingly clear view of the interior of 120's cab.

Thanks Bob. Great photo with lots of personality.

I'm no expert on the Valley; sure looks like Pennsylvania, but doesn't look like Lehighton or Easton/Bethlehem/Allentown. That said, I never got north of the engine facility in Lehighton. Any chance it is Pittson?

Looks like Pittston AKA Coxton engine terminal.

I was only at Coxton once for a short time. That was around then, so very possibly this might be Coxton.
Thanks to both who mentioned Pittston.

The hills match Coxton as well as the placement of the oil tank roundhouse wall, machine shop? at background left and the siding the engine is on.
