March 2, 2008

A warm winter day - 40 degrees. Time to take a walk on the Pittston Rail Trail. Lots of sun.

The former Lehigh Valley Passenger main snakes along the river, with rocks on the other side of it.

Marker stone for the Eagle Air Shaft. Escape route for men during the Knox Mine Disaster.
