"The Brickyard"! Great looking rail location with a cool name. Should be a Pub. I love the train videos done here. You did a great job on this one. The light is perfect. Thanks!
Well, it just always strikes me silly to see an SD70 standard cab actually in the consist of a train up here!! Excellent catch with the EMD lash-up, i saw about 20 in the last trip, which lasted 3 days
Off to right on the south side (Track 1 side) theres a building where they apparently used to make bricks. Whether they still do or not I have no idea, but because of the brickyard right next to the tracks, thats how this location got the name "The Brickyard" many years ago, dating back to PRR or PC days I think.
Yet another priceless video Mike. K5LLA 'n' roarin 645s and 710s. And LOL Domino's has gotta be the best on planet earth. Railfanning + Domino's = Happiness
SD40Es are technally Altoona Shops re-built, but, of corse, they are EMD decendents. (SD50 to 40E)

I enjoy a good SD70, standard or wide cab, anyday. Once EMD, always EMD.
