I'm a bit late to the game this week, but welcome once again to Midweek Photos.

This past Sunday, Steamtown ran a train excursion to Moscow, PA with the F3 combo of "Lackawanna 663 and 664."  These are originally Bangor & Aroostook units owned by the Tri-State Chapter of the NRHS and the Anthracite Railroads Historical Society.  I caught them posing at the boarding platform at Steamtown in Scranton, PA while the Delaware-Lackawanna RR was switching one track over.

Waiting for the last call, I walked out to get this view of the Electric City Trolley, which boards on the opposite side of the platform.

The D-L units make their classic Alco Smoke.

Backing down to reposition some of their cars, the D-L train came in a line-up to catch this view of the three railroads side by side.

And as a parting shot, here is Union Pacific no. 4012, the Big Boy.  This steam engine is not easily photographed due to her size.  It was after closing when I took this one.  No parked cars to get in the way. 

Wednesday may be ending, but Midweek can last into the weekend.  Please add your photos here.
