The following are pictures of the East Broad Top Railroad taken in summer of 1971 or 1972. I found the railroad by accident on my first vacation trip into Pa. After spending a couple of days here and riding the line I knew I would have to have a 3ft. gauge line on my "dream" layout. I have more pictures to add, unfortunatley I can't find them at this time. But when I do they will added to the list.
