same too. 'till I found out about the R&N ones used on that route lol.
Mainly based my variant off a photo from the late teens-30s (era i'm modeling)

I went to town in Cresson because I am preparing to have Altoona/Juniata go to town on me ahahah, with the roundhouse though because im doing it later 40s 50s I am staying away from it lol, unless it was there during that timeframe.

(second photo is a zoomed in part of cresson wye of the top photo provided.) Diagrams are provided here:
Take your time if possible! no rush or hard feelings. Only lending a hand. Besides, I like it with or without the facility anyway! Not everything needs to be accurate as possible.
Now i'm off to bed. Waking up 4am for a flight yesterday is killing me. Good Night and Good Luck!

Matter of fact I do! Site is called Penn pilot. Has aerial shots of the entire state in late 30s and 50. It’s an invaluable site.
easy to use. Type in a town, click the decade your modeling and click the download button! 40 ones are off centered but if they are further from the intended area don’t worry, most of the time it’s included! Example shot below is the west portal of gallitzin in the 30s/40s. The structures about are actually coke ovens the railroad had spurs for. Though most are closed and waiting to be removed. Have fun!![]()

@raffy1 - Impressive weathering on the Centipedes!
The decision to put the roundhouse in at Cression or not to was a hard one for me . But since I'm a Steam guy . It may just haft to be added in the reworking and correction going on now on my version . Some others
And yes it not the right coaldock![]()
