The Lehigh River Gorge, part 3.1 - Reading & Northern.

Since I have several images of R&N activity in the Gorge, I'll break them into two separate posts. We'll start in the southern end, around Glen Onoko.

The Lehigh River Gorge, part 2: Conrail/Norfolk Southern.

Here's a couple of shots of the Hazleton turn (what was NS's designation for this train?) and a rogue northbound NS road freight - not sure if this was a re-route, or a CP or R&N train with NS power.

The Lehigh River Gorge, part 1 1/2:

Here's an image that missed the CP/D&H boat due to myself having the image filed under "S" instead of "C". A SOO Line SD60 leads a southbound train over the Lehigh River at Penn Haven in June 2000.

With the announcement of UP 4014 traversing the Lehigh River Gorge in June, I decided to make my hotel reservations for that weekend. But in order to get as far away from the masses as possible, I will be bicycling deep into the gorge to get my photos and videos. I dusted off my bicycle (which I haven't ridden in a few years), and with a few minor adjustments it will be ready for this task. This will be the first time that this bicycle will have been into the Gorge in 25 years. As celebration, I'm going to post several photos I took in this area while I was residing in nearby Allentown between 1999 to 2001.

This first round are photos of CP/D&H trains.
