Review of East Broad Top Railroad - Narrow Gauge Steam Trains in Pennsylvania DVD

 3.4 of 5 (5)

The Oldest Narrow Gauge Line Still Operating in the US!

Most of the original track remained intact. Historic artifacts lined the route as if caught in a time warp. Our tour of the railroad found abandoned freight cars, deserted yards, stations, tunnels, water tanks, and bridges along the old right-of-way. Journey with us to the mountains of southern Pennsylvania to learn about the East Broad Top"s rich heritage. Then take to the rails to see the line as an excursion operation.

A special railfan weekend has the East Broad Top running all available equipment, including doubleheaded steam trains, fr
