USS McKeesport Tubular Operations |
Description: |
In August 2014 this plant wille be idled, putting 177 employees out of work indefinitely. This location has a long history. National Tube Works started here in 1872. After a strike/lockout in 1987 it was taken over by a company called Camp Hill. USS resumed operations at the plant in 2011, anticipating increased business from the natural gas and oil industries. But now, dumping of cheaper steel imports are said to be the blame for the plants closing. This complex is served by CSX and has a dedicated URR switcher that stays at the location . |

P&LE Boxcar (1) |
Description: |
Built in 1929 to specs of the USRA. This 40 foot "shorty" boxcar is said to be the last P&LE 40 footer in existence. It was used as storage for four decades by Perryopolis Feed and Supply. In 2010 a donation of $20,000 made it possible to be purchased, moved, and restored at this location along the former P&LE right-of-way in Boston, PA. The green color was from parent railroad NYC. It is belived this was the original color. It is unfortunate the roster number was not included when it was repainted. I will try to add that info at a later date. |

CSX 7765 |
Description: |
Q353-24 taking the siding to enter the Riverton Yard. This C40-8W has the Chessie System decal, which shows how little CSX really cares or knows about heritage. The decal should truly be on a former Chessie SD50-2. |
