Not my videos.

Near Altoona and the Horseshoe Curve.
Near Orbisonia and the East Broad Top Railroad.

I can hear the whistle when they blow for a crossing. Altoona and the Horseshoe curve are also nearby.

I know I'm probably going to start an argument here but, to me, the Keystone State as some of, if not the best, breathtaking scenery in this great country of ours.

I'm not going to argue that point, Dan. Very beautiful.

To be fair most states have excellent train operations.

I have been to various states and they also have gorgeous scenery.

The states and museums that I have not visited do showcase immaculate equipment and pretty routes.

If you research railroad tourist museums you will be pleasantly surprised by the abundance of them.

That is why it is a great idea to advertise them here.

A good chance someone will be interested and visit the rail site.

Great promotion and helps them get much needed money during these tense and tough times.

I read Hawaii had one recently. May still run. Depends on the virus situation.

The jury finds the defendant not guilty. Not enough evidence to find the statement false

Will try to cross sell it to the couples out there.

More great videos from wks. I'm nominating wks as The Official Photographer of the Tyco Depot Train Collectors & Model Railroading Forum. It takes a lot of his time and effort to photograph or find pictures/videos and downloading to the forum. Exceptional work, Richard. I, for one, really enjoy your work.

I think he is like an encyclopedia for this stuff.

Thanks but again these are not my photos nor videos.
I never been there. I have been to nearby Altoona.
Very little effort to post these.
I am happy to contribute what I find on the internet.
I am cross selling the railroad for those who can make it there.
After the pandemic that is.
Or when it is under control.
