Some EBT atmosphere for your Wednesday. These turned up while I was looking for something else on an old phone.

Snow outside reflected lots of light in through the roundhouse windows this afternoon.

A couple of weeks ago, three East Broad Top fans visited the Durango & Silverton, in Colorado, for that railroad's winter photo event. We were rewarded with snow, snow, and more snow — the D&S ran plow/flanger trains... https://t.co/fmdzwTK6wf

@PA_Turnpike Actually we have been closed since 2011.

This year’s final public tours of the roundhouse and machine shops take place tomorrow, and have been sold out for some time. About 200 friends and fans will have visited on public tours this year — not bad for a railroad that’s closed. Thanks to all for their enthusiasm.

This weekend brought the EBT’s first events of the new year — a visit Saturday by a group of photographers and then a tour Sunday for folks attending the Heritage Rail Alliance conference in Strasburg. It’s great to see so much enthusiasm for the railroad.

Hey! We're offering public tours of the EBT roundhouse and machine shops on four Saturdays this coming summer.... https://t.co/Bp4zwTe15o
