These shots are from a trip to the Ironton Rail To Trail or IRT in Whitehall, PA.   It looks like the railroad was a belt line serving industry such as Cement Plants and Steel Works in the are the area of Whitehall, Cementon, Ironton and Coplay.   

There is informational signage along the trail explaining it.  

Here is a caboose at a trailhead.

This lineside pole was near Saylor Park.  This looked like a spur or yard area.

This looks like narrow gauge of some sort.    A concrete trolley pole was nearby.

This is such a cool trail and worth exploring.

Must go back. Missed other parts of it.
