Very busy group of control point foe any RR traffic North and west of Philadelphia.Have you found your Grade info yet! I've never come across any in my research for the Keystone Corridor. I was surprised their was nothing at the Keystone Crossings Website. I saw this just the other day while trying to find the info you were wanting.

i checked everything even emailing Amtrak "They do not give out such info" so it'll be more of a guessing gameim still doing research on this since im still awaiting the Release of Vinces version of the Northeast CorridorAnd as for the Reading part, it passes under the PRR in North Philadelphia and i have pretty equal interest in that Railroad since it was once a very busy Port "Port Richmond Terminal" which was downgraded to only 1 trackResearching the Northeast Corridor Philadelphia Subdivision, and trying to get info on Port Richmond Terminal (Reading Railroad)

I know what you mean, I had a hard time getting info for the area as well when I built the NEC Extension route. You have been able to find more information than I ever was, you have put forth alot of work and dedication towards your research. It will be great when the new NEC is released so that we are able to extend it further.
