I’ve always liked the LV, even though it was never a standout but, rather, a wall flower, humbly performing the tasks at hand. 🚂

Grew up in western NY where the LV was flatter and faster. Early memories include a ride from Geneva to NYC (on the Maple Leaf?).

Some of my very ancient paternal ancestral roots in the US (1700s/pre-Revolutionary War) are in the actual Lehigh Valley; Lynn Township to be more precise – true "Pennsylvania Dutch", albeit immigrating from a bit farther south than typical, in the Baden-Württemberg region. Over the course of the roughly 300 years since, our particular small branch of the family geadually moved as far west within the continental US as possible, ultimately settling in the Pacific Northwest, which both my late mother's and late father's familes have called home for well over 100 years. I've never been to Pennsylvania myself (yet), but somehow I have had an interest in the LV, Reading, and Pennsy roads for years, perhaps indirectly influenced by familial geographical association.

This is a look back in time to the "Anthracite" roads that once made the eastern rail scene more interesting and colorful. These principal roads were the Lehigh Valley, Jersey Central, Reading, D&H and the Erie Lackawanna Railroads.<br>From our full movie "HARD COAL ROADS" Find it at <a href="http://www.cspmovies.com/">www.cspmovies.com</a>
