So this was a Monday. Do they run on a regular schedule? The shadows in your photos suggest it got to Tyrone in mid-morning and was mid afternoon by the time it got to Bellefonte.

M, W, F. It arrived at Tyrone at 11:30 and departed Tyrone 45 minutes later. It may seem almost unbelievable that, once the train left Vail - about 3 miles above Tyrone, it ran at 60mph for much of the route. It was in the yard at Bellefonte at 2:30.
