Eastern Railroad Discussion > End of Photos at Kline`s Lane Emmaus, Pa.

For years, Kline`s Lane in Emmaus, Pa. (MP. 30.7 NS Reading Line)
was a great place to hang out and shoot trains in good morning light.
The 7 Generations charter school is renovating the old Rodale building
and the new fence along the edge of the parking lot was installed
Thursday and Friday.

Thanks for the update, that's sad. Shot countless trains from Rodale's parking lot...

What happened to Rodale?

That stinks, I always liked it there!

Rodale closed shop and the building was sold

Can't really fault a charter school for wanting to discourage its students from wandering onto the railroad tracks, though.

was a really great spot to see trains in the lehigh valley. I recall at least two days there hanging out in the morning and late afternoon before having finals at school back in 2014 and 2015.

2016 and 2017 saw surges in eastbound traffic and a few westbound trains to wet my whistle before the eastbound parade began

i am sad to see it all go….

Or not wanting foamers with cameras hagning around their school yard.  

Still a good shot on the east side of the crossing

really the employees of the charter school are very friendly with foamers. That won't be an issue.

in fact, a couple of the foamers have been asked to come in and lecture the kids on rr safety.

That stinks, but I am not surprised.  Probably should have been fenced years ago.
