A block from home, NS 212 through Topton, PA
Author: dschlegel

I got a tip that the 212 for today had the Illinois Terminal heritage unit trailing from TO's Pattenburg yesterday afternoon. This morning I received a text from my brother giving me a 10 minute warning (train had cleared Blandon), so I quickly walked the block to the Main St crossing in Topton.

Here's the 212 hustling East on Main 2. Note that autoracks are back on the head end, these had been gone for a few months.

Enjoy!
Dan

Nice! I'm hoping it leads on 211 or 21M tomorrow.

It made 211, but thru my area before the rooster crowed. He was already in Annville as I woke up.

Yeah I was saving logs still when he went through Topton, on the bright side it looks like the LV unit is leading an M0K, perhaps it will lead an 18G later??
