[quote user="ROBERT WILLISON"] Sounds like a great trip. Imagine the Pennsylvanian was hanging on by a thread until the govern Corbett finally cough up  pa portion of the trains expenses.[/quote] According to my brother, who lives in Pittsburgh, the Pennsylvania was on the chopping block, but the Pennsylvania legislature came to the rescue in the nick of time.  The annual cost to the state is approximately $5.5 million.  The train lost $5.2 million in FY13 before depreciation and interest. Unmentioned in my previous post is the scenery along the way.  East bound or west bound, it is great.  In addition to the Horseshoe Curve, one can view the Conemaugh Valley, Logan Valley, Juniata Valley - the train runs along the Juniata River for a considerable portion of the trip, and the Amish Country - not an official designation - near Lancaster.  I find central and western Pennsylvania to be every bit as beautiful as Colorado, etc.  This is especially true in the fall when the foliage is changing or has changed.
