The Middletown & Hummelstown RR has had flooding along much of its route, this is apparently Fulling Mill Rd. near Hummelstown.
Bridgeview Inn near Marysville was virtually surrounded this morning when the Susquehanna River crested.

Looks bad. Very sorry to see this.
Not good for the railroad, that's for sure. I wonder if the Inn has any water in the building (perhaps it has a basement?).
The rooms are way above the water line as shown in the pictures so hopefully they did not suffer any damage.

Friday a.m. update from Bridgeview:
Reopened for business with basement cleanup still underway.
Note FEC diesel on Rockville Bridge, the water has receded several feet.
Yes...is that all the problems? I noticed Hershey and park were severely flooded, and l don't remember a nearby river or stream, and thought the amusement park and surrounding area were up on a slope? Saw Palmyra mentioned, and thought it was just east of Hershey? How about York?...Susquehanna runs between York and Lancaster, which last has a stream? Lot of covered bridges in that area..
There’s a stream that runs right thru Hershey park. I live in York county and certain parts flooded really bad. I saw the Yorkrail crew out inspecting track one afternoon not sure if they found any trouble spots.
