Michael Maitland posted three photos with the comment: "Cola tower, Columbia, PA still standing. Was taking these photos when a family with small children walked by. Told them that trains normally run at night to avoid Amtrak on the way to Baltimore. Just then, heard a horn and a 100 car coal train came roaring thru - haha. Guess they had a "window" or park somewhere down the line."
Steven Schorr: They used to run at night only until the pandemic, Amtrak lightened up on service and NS started running more loosely. And for some reason they never went back to the old way. So any of us who worked hard to get daylight shots of trains on the line previously, have been screwed by a bunch of kids with cameras and tripods (no, not you) puking their dozens of port road train photos all over the internet after putting minimal effort into getting movements on the line. That’s pretty much how this hobby works at this point for anyone that’s been shooting a long time, your work is made useless by the technology generation duplicating it ten fold and spreading the pictures and information everywhere so no previously unique photo can hold value.
Jeffrey Gluck: Good to see closed towers not covered with disgusting graffiti.
Robert Singer: We stacked them up at Perryville MD. To wait for an Amtrak window. Usually had to take one or two in before the Amtrak Dispr. would take any out. I worked the Port Road desk at Harrisburg.
