Kevin Ashbaugh General In viewing your over/under bridge photos, I thought that you had the RRs reversed in the descriptions. This photo confirms that. Just prior to B&P aquisition of the line, it was the Mountain Laurel Railroad, a subsidiary of P&S. This tunnel was actually Pennsy/Conrails's Low Grade Line which ran from Redbank to Brookville (abandoned), and Brookville to Driftwood (still in use by B&P). The B&P only uses the Dubois to Brookville segment to shuttle locos and cars to the old P&S shops for service, and an occassional Brookville Equipment Corp. (Brookville Loco) pick up of new locos to go to purchasing RRs. I hope you checked out Brookville Equip. Corp. while you were there ;-) 10/21/2011 9:31:32 AM
