Saturday :

Rainy day, not to good for much outdoor activity

Taylor  -

D&H #7312 was at Taylor.  A crane was on a siding.  Nothing seemed to be
going on.   Scanner was quiet.

Steamtown -

Several DL units were on bridge 60, like they normally are.    Took a
walk up to the food court in the mall.   The trolley came back from the
Iron Furnaces and the #514 in Nickle Plate colors hauled two
coaches.     When I was walking back, the trolley was going on another
run.   Still dark and overcast, although the rain has stopped.

Buttonwood -

Nothing but some hopper cars.  No trains.

Ashley -

Took a walk behind the Huber Breaker and looked at some remains of the
yard.  Some old switches on a disconnected spur.    Also still standing
near the boro building is a block signal.  That was the throat of the
yard.   Of course in the distance I heard a train go thru Buttonwood
were I was about 15 minutes ago.



Sunday  :

Sunny but cold.

Avoca  and Duryea -
Nothing.  took my little nephew out with me for a ride and maybe to see
some trains, but nothing.

Taylor -

D&H #7312 and an CP unit was laying over.   Nothing else moving.


Ashley -

Went back near the Huber Breaker to take some pictures.  Also went near
the Park N Ride by the Industrial Park entrance to see a conveyor
carried coal and some pipes over the tracks.    Got some good shots of
the  breaker in the distance at a different angle.
