waldwickperson 2023-06-07 | On Friday, May 5th, 2023, the East Broad Top Railroad began its season with 2-8-2 16 doing round trips from Orbisonia to Colgate Grove and back on their recently reactivated main line. We got them at several spots along the line. 16 was recently brought back to service a few months before this, after being out of service since the railroad went under in the late 1950's. We also got a shot on Sunday.
