East Broad Top Railroad restoring historic portion of track

[@larryc8568]

I try to donate $50.00 to the Friends of the East Broad Top at least twice a year to help with track restoration and their other EBT restoration projects. I would encourage others interested in seeing this revival to make whatever contribution they can.

Those narrow gauge mikados hold a special place in my heart ... I volunteered as fireman up there during my high school years, if I ever get back to PA, Mount Union will be my home.

Too bad that Salone sold off #3. Hopefully the EBT Foundation will acquire one or both of the Mt. Union switchers I never thought that both of them would leave Mt. Union

Can’t wait for Saltillo depot to be open again. And love for 15 to start its rebuild once 16s maintenance is done

There was a small strip mining operation up at Alvan that started in 2017. The coal being mined was SUPPOSEDto be high grade with a VERY low level of impurities. I learned all this from somebody that lives in Broad Top City. It's a pity the EBT didn't use any of it for their tourist operations.

Overdose of cheap puns with the newscaster.

Convert them to oil burning locomotives

[@nicholasmedovich8691]

Will NEVER happen

[@jimmybraum942]

NO!

[@RibbonRailProfuctions]

I sure fuckin hope not

[@regularguy7266]

Why? East Broad Top has no reason to convert to oil, while a locomotive like Atlantic Coast Line 1504 I can understand why.

[@ReggieArford]

Why? (Except to be perverse.) PA has no shortage of coal, and it's both safer and less expensive than oil. Not to mention, un-historic and a PITA to convert..
