East Brady, PA: 1928 Trail/Pennsy Red Bank Coaling Tower and Phillipston Turntable

Coaling Tower: (Satellite, since the Armstrong Trail goes right under it, there are quite a few photos.)
Turntable: (Satellite)

The Pennsy RoW that followed the Allegheny River is now the Armstrong Trail. Between the coaling tower and the turntable is the east portal of the Brady Tunnel.

Redbank Coaling Tower, near East Brady, Pa, USA. This tower would provide coal from local mines for steam engines on this Pennsylvania Railroad main line from Pittsburgh, PA to points north, including Buffalo, NY.
