All should be well, I am sure had we been trackside at the proper places, The peep bearing high and wides were shipped to all points from Bethlehem including Jersey Central, Lehigh Valley and the LNE in addition to the Bethlehem Branch and East Penn Routes. We better keep our eyes open next year, and maybe report the movements on the Heritage units page.

HAPPY and Blessed Easter to all!!!
Another year has passed and the Reading Lines - Central Division has rolled out another Easter Day Special. This year the executives wanted to be involved, so they brought out the varnish and the Shamokin heavy weight business car. Plus they showed off the crane, in case eggs needed to be unloaded.

leaving Reading for points on the system....

Thank you Barry -- Same to you. By the way, does General Rule G include sugar highs? If so, your train crews, and the rest of us, are in big trouble during this holiday. <W>

Barry the crane and business cars are nice touches. But shouldn't these Easter Eggstras be displaying white flags?

LOL - Eggstras! Maybe they would allow some "springy pastel" flags just for the occasion. I hope they tuck that crane down a couple notches before they get to a tunnel or overpass......

While your bunnies are shipping their eggs. I caught this old guy stock piling Anthracite.... must be some bad kids out there this year,
