Eastern Railroad Discussion > PRR E8s in Coatesville, PADate: 07/03/11 08:49 PRR E8s in Coatesville, PA Author: PennRailVideos The best I could do in catching Bennett's E8s in Coatesville crossing the impressive stone arch bridge. It's much more over grown since I was last in Coatesville, so I had to make due with what was available. At least I got a shot... my buddy who was with me only got so much as to see them whoosh over the bridge!

Date: 07/03/11 09:16 Re: PRR E8s in Coatesville, PA Author: PennRailVideos Sunday, June 26th, on their westbound trip to Pittsburgh. I believe 8:42AM was the time the train passed over the bridge.
