Pittsburgh Railfanning

Part 3 of our visit to the Maryland and Pennsylvania area focuses on the ex-Pennsylvania Railroad and Monongahela Railroad lines in the Pittsburgh, PA area with a little bit of Union Railroad and CSX action thrown in. Join us as we tour the Pittsburgh area starting up at Conway Yard along the mighty Ohio River. Several iconic locations are included in our footage including shots at CP Penn just north of downtown Pittsburgh as well as Duquesne on the south side. While having only a short time to tour this railfan hotspot, we were able to check many things off our bucket list including rare footage of the Union RR crossing the Monongahela River, a shot of a CSX train pulled by a pair of BNSF pumpkins, and the NS 1069 Virginian Heritage locomotive pulling a hot eastbound intermodal through town. We hope that you enjoy our visit to one of the must see railroad locations in North America where coal is still king and towering bridges dominate the skyline! As always, thanks for making RailfanJunction your destination for railfan videos. Now celebrating 10 years on YouTube!!!!
