Remarks & Notes

Here's mainline action from the area south of Duncannon in the Spring of 1958 as an afternoon eastbound of the Blue Ribbon fleet rolls by at speed. The late Jim Kelly and John commandeered his father's '50 Olds '88 and went to Altoona to check out the property post-dieselization. This photo was taken on the trip back, which included stopping at Enola.

The Pennsy was one of the biggest passenger carriers in the United States, but its fortunes waned and it lost business to the highways and skies, and stumbled toward its ill-fated merger with the New York Central.
