SWP Bowest Rebuid 2018; On the Sheepskin |
Description: |
Four new tracks are nearing completion at Bowest. This alignment was the WM connection to their main across from the B&O at Green Junction. Former Sheepskin Rail Trail is being "reverse railbanked" in this view to the chagrin of cyclists. |

SWP Bowest Yard Rebuild 2018; Ribbon Rail |
Description: |
Looking south toward Dunbar, the rail looks like wet noodles prior to surfacing. The grade separation with the main at right is evident. Original Bowest Yard turnout is right at the bridge in the background. The track machine is very near the location of the old West Penn Railways overhead trestle. |
