Viewing Album:  Harrisburg with my father (retired PRR railroader)
 
By:Bob Krug
Dates:11/2/2013 - 11/2/2013
Album Info:I met Dad, age 86, at the Amtrak station in Harrisburg, PA and we spent the day chasing trains along former PRR tracks. Dad, a retired railroader, was track supervisor for the PRR's Middle Division back in the 1950's, and we both enjoy visiting his former haunts. Bonus train of the day was Amtrak's Susquehanna Special Excursion which we intercepted at the north of of Enola Yard and photographed crossing the Rockville Bridge.

Description:  That's a 16-car trainset filled with happy rare mileage collectors. The train has just come up the normally-freight-only Port Road from Perryville, MD. It's now heading back to 30th St Station in Philly on a routing that will take it over the Columbia-Lancaster secondary.
