.
A visit to Fourth & Hamilton Sts., Allentown, Pa.
.
.
.
Railfanning was much easier then......all you had to do was take a short walk downtown.
.
.
.
A few repaints of Teemu's original models - nothing real fancy, pretty basic - but because of the relatively small file sizes, thought they would be good to use as "AI traffic". Perhaps one day will do a more detailed version better suited for "player drivable" situations.
.
.
.
3 coaches.....starting with coach 1565
.
.
.
The daily commute at Allentown's CNJ station.
.
.
.
coach 1609
.
.
.
There will be stops at Bethlehem and Easton before crossing the river to the "home turf" of New Jersey, starting at Phillipsburg.
.
.
.
While this beautiful station still stands today, it has, sadly, been converted to a nightclub, and pretty much stripped of it's graceful dignity.
.
.
.
coach 1324
.
.
.
.
Meanwhile, freight operations are maintained on the west side of the station.
.
.
.
After dinner, returning at night.....

.
.
.
The last train of the day discharges it's weary commuters....
.
.
.
With just a few more stops up the Lehigh River to go.
.
.
Regards,Mark
