Now, Back to our letter L.

How aout Lehigh Vallley?

Rule 1: This is my railroad.

Rule 2: I make the rules.

Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome, but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1!

I have a Kiskiminetas Junction on my railroad. I wonder if they are related?

I believe so, Ed.  The railroad is located in Schenley, PA, and is near where the Kiskiminetas River joins the Allegheny River.

 

As far as I'm aware, the railway is not currently in operation, as there's an embargo on the bridge which connects it to Norfolk Southern.
