A Visit to Coal Country

Tamaqua Station 2014

Tamaqua Station 2014

My wife and I took a nice ride up into Coal Country this past week. It was a nice warm Winter day, good for exploring the different towns that all too often are just names on an old map.

Tamaqua station looked nice decorated for the holidays. But it does seem a little empty in front of it with only one track left.

I’ve noticed a few folks on the web talking about their traffic on their sites. I usually don’t pay to much attention to that because in my day job I work on sites and there are too many people focused on the numbers. But I thought I’d take a look on my server and check to see what they were. In the last year, I had over 100,000 visits and over 270,000 page views. That’s not bad for a personal site without advertising. Thank you for visiting.

  1. George,
    I’d love to see more pics of what the coal regions look like in 2015.
    Also, are there any O scale castings available for the large roof ventilators that were on the reading heavyweight RPO/baggage combines? I’m modifying a GGD combine to make a short car at the head end of my SGL Schuylkill. I’m trying to avoid fabricating them out of sheet styrene.
    See you in Chicago.
