I don't know much about Pennsylvania, but I did get into the car once in the early 1970s, and drove there from Minnesota just to see Horseshoe Curve and the EBT.  In hiking around the woods on the outside of the curve just downgrade from the park, there was a valley running upgrade and away from the curve at a tangent.  I found a fairly prominent railroad grade running up that valley.  I recall there were some remaining details such as culverts, rock walls, etc. It looked rather inviting to follow it into the forest, but I only went a few hundred feet, not wanting to commit the time.  Somewhere since, I have read of the identification of this long abandoned line.  Apparently, it was an independent coal feeder railroad that made a junction with the PRR at the curve.  I vaguely recall the corporate name contained the word, "Lick."  Was there more than one of this kind of branch leaving the PRR at the curve?
