Lehigh Valley Shenanigans!
Author: CynthiaLuther

I started off my day down in Butler, PA in hopes of catching a B&P train heading out of the yard. After waiting about a half on hour, I noticed that 64W had a pretty neat looking consist! I decided to drive up north to try and catch it! With my luck, 64W had stopped at Conemaugh for helpers. Giving me just enough time to beat it. I waited about ten minutes before the train made it's way around the curve at Summerhill. I have to say, my second photo is probably my favorite photo I have ever taken! Picture three is the helpers that they had added at Conemaugh!

And my last photo is a skyline photo of Downtown Pittsburgh. If you look down by the right hand corner, you can see a loaded CSX train making it's way beside the river! I thought it was pretty neat!

Wow, what a consist! I'll bet none of us will ever see that consist ever again.

Yeah, I'll say this consist is definitely in the running for "Consist of the Year", along with the Mopac/VGN Heritage locos teaming-up out west in January.

I'll be honest, if it wasn't for your post, I would have never headed up north and caught it! So thanks again Dad :)

In my over 40 years of seeing trains, this has to be one of the most interesting and colorful "consist's" I have ever witnessed. Good effort and good results from that extra long chase!

Congratulations on your pictures of 64W. Surely that will be at the top of your collection of RR pictures.

You've got some great shots there. I know you said that No 2 was your favorite, but I give the nod to No 1, a good candidate for IOTD!
