PLE Caboose #504 - Pittsburgh & Lake Erie
Title:  PLE Caboose #504 - Pittsburgh & Lake Erie

The caboose was part of the tourist train roster of the Fayette Central Railroad which unfortunately went out of business in 2012. The railroad line was sold to Southwest Pennsylvania Railroad and due to increased freight traffice, insurance costs for the tourist train pushed it out of business. The caboose was later sold to Dr. Doolittle's Roadside Cafe & Creamery in Dubois, PA.

Fayette Central Railroad, river crossing
Title:  Fayette Central Railroad, river crossing
Description:  The weekend tourist train pausing for photos on the Greene Junction Bridge over the Youghiogheny River in South Connellsville. The train is made up of B&O 9061, PESX 5045, PC 18086, and P&LE 504. The passenger car was leased from the Potomac Eagle Scenic Railroad in the summer. It was built June 1, 1923 by Canadian Car & Foundry for Canadian National Railway. It has a capacity of 80 passengers. The train does not go any further forward than this because it would be entering CSX tracks. From here it shoves backwards towards Dunbar and Uniontown.
