View from town |
| Description: |
Its hard to get a shot of a train on the Nicholson bridge from a close angle due to its height at sheer size. This look, taken from the Pump & Pantry on US 11 shows the bridge pretty well, but its hard to see the train, just starting after a short stop on the bridge to let riders take in the view of Tunkhannock Creek and surrounding areas. |

Hooking up |
| Description: |
No, not that way!! CN 3254 couples to the south end of the Steamtown train as several riders watch the action. The coach, interestingly, is original DLW, one of the Boonton cars that lasted into the 70's in New Jersey commuter service. |

Friendly wave |

A family standing trackside at Cayuga, where the Kelser Valley Branch diverged from the DLW main exchanges waves with the crew of the Steamtown train, working hard up the grade to Clarks Summit on its way to Kingsley. The trips on the DLW cut off were popular, not only for riders, but with locals as well, many coming out to see the trains. |

In full cry |
| Description: |
Once the train got over the top at Clarks Summit, it would take off as the DLW engineering folks envisioned when they built the line in 1912. The trees have cut down the view some, but we still have a good looking train rolling north at Hop Bottom. The station, standing but in disrepair, is behind me. |
