    The WK&S is truly the hidden gem of the regions tourist railroads. Others in the area might have bigger budgets and longer runs, but none can beat the scenery and relaxing atmosphere.

    I love the wk&s, my wife and I did many rides there. I like the moonlight ride the host sometimes. That lne engine looks great since they repainted it. Thanks for sharing!

      Above the door it still had the “ rules “ to follow listed by the Reading Company. It was amazing.

      Not a problem, it was an awesome day at the railroad. I plan to be back soon to do some more filming 🚂💨

    I definitely hope we get some more GE 65 tonners on M&H like the one they have here on this line. Definitely some nifty switchers to work on and handle and not as quick to jump the gun in throttling up like the two Alcos.

      Their 65 Tonner (Red / Grey) was completely rebuilt / restored. It looks like a brand new loco inside the cab as well. They are perfect for this railroad because of the rail weight. I think they are running 85 pound rail and don’t want to use anything larger because of wear. I’ll definitely have to check out that railroad , alcos are a lot of fun to watch. Thanks for watching!

    Awesome video in a great location! That railroad is on my to-do list, and now that I see it I know it's well worth checking out. Neat to see some LNE equipment still being used. I don't know a lot about that railroad, but I sometimes walk and bike the LNE Trail through Lehigh Gap which used to be one of their lines. They've got an interesting collection of equipment there, and it looks well cared for. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.

    Cool Nick I know some of the conductors who works at WK&S maybe next time if you come up this way and if I am there I can get you a cab ride in 734 or that GE 45Toner
