East Penn Railways related stuff. I had lunch in Telford, PA
around 1pm, and saw some trash cars waiting for CSX to take them.
I then rode my motorcycle North to Quakertown to see how the repaint
job on the EPRY 3153 was progressing. As the pictures show, it's
getting close to the point where paint is applied.
There were also some trash cars being working on in Q-town,
along with a piece of MOW equipment on the tracks. I also
took a picture of the new newsstand that was built at the
North end of the passenger station.
