I have a question ... Possibly mlplap7902 would know.

The Portage Railroad was for the most part a canal all the way from Duncannon to Hollidaysburg ... and from there, it was a hemp rope cable drawn series of 10 inclined plane RR from Hollidaysburg to Johnstown.

It was upgraded to a 2 track Hollidaysburg & Petersburg branch RR, connecting from Petersburg to @ Cove Forge/Carlim ... and my maps show from Cove Forge/Carlim to Hollidaysburg was just single tracked ... single tracked through Duncansville Wye ... then again double tracked through the Muleshoe Curve all the way to Tunnelhill.

Is this correct ?

I would imagine that having only telegraph Morse code communications to dictate block to block train orders, controling a single tracked line, would have made train traffic control a dispatchers nightmare.

Was this line ever totally double tracked ?

Whats inside a Baldwin Centipede

Just starting a 5 stripe Brunswick Green Centipede reskin (the nose stripes still needs work) ... a 5 stripe Tuscan Red reskin will follow

The stripes were too high up ... they should straddle the number boards

See Below: Getting closer !

The curved nose stripes need work

 

[Railwoodman]

Let see them, the dirtier the better. I.m not sure, how many paint schemes did they have. I only know of two.

An early reskin ... the nose stripes still need work

 

[Railwoodman]

Wow, I missed this. Very nice very nice indeed .

 

[cascaderailroad]

You had to know it was coming ... A PRR DD40x Brunswick Green is next :hehe:

Needs a running number.

Come to think of it Tuscan Red was reserved for passenger locos ... So I need to remake it Brunswick Green, with the PRR keystone up above the letters.

Don't forget about that PRSL Tender that came with the E6

 

[Railwoodman]

Nice shots of the Wildwood branch, nice engine too

Believe me Steve, I haven't! I even made PRSL P70's!! I love this route, I just wish it went to AC.
Later that same day in 1949, a PRSL E6 leaves for Atlantic City from Cape May.

Thanks man good shots yourself. I've been slowly updating the Cape May County route by gfisher. My only wish is that I had a couple of Reading G3's to use with the Pennsy steam too!
