WestReadingBranch _4
Image information
In this view provided by John Funk, we catch a glimpse of the complex trackwork that was common along the West Reading Branch, as the Reading and PRR tracks intersected and crossed each other in this area. Also, note the bumpers on the end of the yard tracks at right, and the fact that from this location north to Penn Street (you can see the Penn Street Bridge in the far background), it
appears to have been in-street running. In later years this street was removed as can been seen in some other photos in this album.
