LEWISTOWN JUNCTION

Lewistown Junction is off Rt. 322/22 west of Mt. Union. It is a great spot to watch trains. It is a working station for Amtrak. This visit is Friday January 19, 2002. North Shore RR at Lewistown. I didn't even know this outfit existed. It was a nice surprise. West bounder  at the station. The signals help to make this an interesting spot. I am on the "wrong" side of the tracks. There is a sign not to cross the tracks but you can only see it from the "wrong" side of the tracks. Amtrak headed east around 1:30. I think the schedule said it should be by around 11:25. What a surprise. The Sun went in on me. Lewistown Junction west bounder with a little blue on the head end from the station side. East bound with a standard cab. I rarely get the train numbers on these things. West bounder at the station. I had to get the name in there. Lighting can be difficult here. I am on the north side of the tracks. There is a hill on the south side. East bound on Sunday Jan. 21, 2002. An entirely different landscape. The lighting was bad for this shot but I couldn't toss it. It has snow in it. East bounder going away. I just wanted to get a shot from the same spot as number 7 but with the snow.
