765 in the Fog (Deadhead Altoona to Enola) | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Glenn FreschOGR Forum Member

Taken last Thursday.

It's before 6am at Tyrone as the Sun struggles to appear and 765 is on its way - but first, a roadrailer passes by.

Finally, the 765 appears from the dark.

Chasing along the highway to the east.

Charging by Hunt tower.

Crossing the bridge at Mt. Union, the low coulds blend with the 765's steam.

By the signals at Port Royal.

The PRR signals are an endangered breed - best to photograph them now.

Along the Susquehanna River at Duncannon.

Around 9am the train is on Rockville Bridge, having completed its journey.
