Fayette Central Railroad, river crossing
Title:  Fayette Central Railroad, river crossing
Description:  The weekend tourist train pausing for photos on the Greene Junction Bridge over the Youghiogheny River in South Connellsville. The train is made up of B&O 9061, PESX 5045, PC 18086, and P&LE 504. The passenger car was leased from the Potomac Eagle Scenic Railroad in the summer. It was built June 1, 1923 by Canadian Car & Foundry for Canadian National Railway. It has a capacity of 80 passengers. The train does not go any further forward than this because it would be entering CSX tracks. From here it shoves backwards towards Dunbar and Uniontown.
