Catawissa's Whistle Stop & Caboose Lodging
Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, October 27, 2004 10:20 PM
I was here in June of this year. Stayed in the PC 18381 Class N-9E. When they say large end platforms, man are they BIG! There are lots of other cabooses there. Walter Gosciminski - park owner, gave me a grand tour through the 3 mile round trip into woods on the bad of and old abandoned line (think it was PRR but not entirely sure) which is now 4 wheelin' territory. At the end of the line is where a trestle was removed and where he has another caboose he wants to bring into the park to create more lodging.

I only stayed that afternoon and night. By next morning I was in Harrisburg taking pics of Conrail and NS in the yard. But Catawissa was a good stay.
