Album Info:For all the chasing and foaming and grabbing photos that I've done along the Reading and Northern Railroad, I'd never hiked in to shoot from the most iconic photo location on the line - a flood control dam that offers a clear view of the spectacular Hometown trestle. The fall foliage is near peak in Pennsylvania, and despite intermittent showers I was able to get the photos I wanted. It's about a 20 minute hike in from where I parked the car. The trestle spans the Little Schuylkill River.
