Horseshoe Curve is part of Norfolk Southern's busy Pittsburgh Division. It's not uncommon for 50 or more trains to pass Horseshoe Curve each day. Westbound trains heading out of nearby Altoona, PA, climb the steep grade until they reach the summit of the Allegheny Mountains near the Gallitzin Tunnels. Eastbound trains are on the downward grade as they pass Horseshoe Curve on their way into Altoona. In addition to the railpark, there is a @VirtualRailfan webcam at Horseshoe Curve, allowing railfans to watch trains 24/7/365! Here's a link to the webcam at Horseshoe Curve: • Video
While Horseshoe Curve is part of Norfolk Southern's Pittsburgh Division, several types of foreign power can often be seen at the Curve such as Union Pacific, BNSF, and even CSX.
