The town of Ralston. A water tank is located here for the pushers sometimes needed for the climb out of town. Much industry is located here giving needed revenue and traffic for the RailRoad.

| Ralston station. Here, the Ralston local switcher takes care of spotting cars at the local industries. Since the loco and caboose are located at the station, it must be lunch time! Photo by Val Pistilli | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

SOUTHPORT YARD
Although this is the northern terminus for the Lehigh & Susquehanna, the northernmost point on the PRR line was Sodus Point. The L & S represents this with two loops off to the right. The Reading power is borrowed for transfer runs for the Lehigh Valley RR that has a connection here. Photo by Val Pistilli |
