Railfan Pictures of the Week - 11/24/2019
 
EPRY (or ESPN) Bethlehem Branch Telford PA October 8 2019
 
East Penn Railways (or Railroad, depending on the source) out of Quakertown PA interchanges with the Pennsylvania Northeastern Railroad in Telford PA, and now they have something new to do the work.
They have brought SW1200 ESPN 37 up from Kennett Square to help out.
Interestingly it reads "THE EAST PENN RAILROAD" inside the keystone on the cab and ESPN for reporting marks.
Now "EAST PENN RAILWAYS" B23-7 EPRY 3153 doesn't have to do all the work, like it has for most of its time up here.
The pair shoved a cut of tank cars onto what is left of the former Reading North Main where they will wait to be picked up by PN.
Today the former South Main is almost invisible, and to think that just ten years ago, it was still usable, when storage space was at a premium.
