Unfortunate that it's only 200,000/year.. I once met a man in Toronto and when I told him I was originally from Cresson, his eyes lit up and he started waxing poetic about railroad history. Thanks for making these videos!

thanks, need to spend some time there. The Mule Shoe Curve is a neat part of this too.

You mean The Horseshoe Curve

[@jamesalles139]

@@claymack1109 Ah, no - that is separate and part of the PRR - competition for and replacement of the canals. Muleshoe is south of the current Horseshoe Curve, and can be seen on Google maps on Old Route 22 in Duncansville, PA as the 6 to 10 trail.

We visited this several years ago. It was fascinating to see the engine house, the Lemon House, and the inclines where the rails were. Thanks for posting this.

Thomas Zimmerman thank you for the kind words. I post each episode on r/nationalparks and the subreddit for the state the park is located in. If you have any ideas, or you’d like to help spread the word yourself I’d really appreciate it. Thanks again!
