On a sticky summer day in August, we find ourselves in south-central Pennsylvania on the East Broad Top Railroad. This is a three-foot narrow gauge railroad located in the Allegheny Mountains, built to haul coal from the mines to the mighty Pennsylvania Railroad in Mount Union, PA. Let’s climb aboard the caboose and ride by the original shop facilities and station building in Orbisonia, PA.
