Rtherford, PA: NS/Reading Railyard and Coaling Tower

(Satellite, most of the yard is now an intermodal yard)

Back in 1947 this yard was still out in the country. The tracks are labelled READING (LEBANON VALLEY BR). I think the rectangle to the left of the roundhouse was the coaling tower. An intermodal yard now hides any trace of the roundhouse.
