Dickerson Run PA P&LE Railroad Roundhouse ~ early 1900s!

Dave Kuntz posted four photos with the comment: "Resembling a giant seashell implanted on the shores of the Youghiogheny River, the Dickerson Run Roundhouse foundations in PA are almost invisible to GAP trail users just a few feet away but very impressive from the air."
Ian Hapsias: It is where the P&LE Connellsville extension was.
Brandon Peck: Pittsburgh and lake erie and western maryland was service here.
[Western Maryland was a fellow member of the Alphabet Route.]
