Coal at CP Day
Title:  Coal at CP Day
Description:  At the east end of Enola, trains went down the Port Road Branch, which connected to the Northeast Corridor at Perryville MD. At one time, when the PRR owned that line, it was a busy piece of railroad, and the stomping ground of GG 1s. Now its SD40-2s, such as this one with a 102 car PPLX coal train.
