Though it is labeled as a B23-7R on the side this locomotive was upgraded to a B30-7R in August, 1993. It is passing one of the old Universal Rundle buildings in New Castle, Pa on the way to pick up cars at the NS interchange.

If you stood in the same spot today where some of these pictures were taken on this day in 2013,you would think you were in a totally different location.

Ed, is that a bridge to nowhere in the third picture?
Charlie
Hi Charlie---here's another view taken from the High Level Bridge on York Blvd. in Hamilton.That "bridge to nowhere" is actually part of a pedestrian walking trail which borders the shore of Hamilton Bay---the trolley is a much more comfortable way of taking in the scenery
