Fall and winter has come to the Harrisburg Line, bringing beautiful low sun or snowy weather. A variety of trains and locations will be visited in this video, including foreign power which can be seen leading trains. The Lackawanna heritage unit also makes an appearance, although it is trailing. Anyway, sit back and enjoy the action of big freights grinding the former Reading mainline between Harrisburg and Reading, Pennsylvania.
