William Price has caught WM Challenger 1211 passing the semophore at the east end of the Keystone Viaduct. I photographed the same signal base and battery celler much much later in November 2004.
Lookind west onto the Keystone Viaduct. The viaduct has recently been completed for the Allegheny Highlands Trail. (November 2004)
Looking down on the road from the viaduct. The road had been washed away in certain sections. The local traffic is being detoured up alongside the CSX tracks. In the second photo you can see the new bridge span that was the replacement after removal of the bridge piers and 3 girder sections. It doesn't appear to be able to hold much weight. It's a shame it was replaced. (November 2004)
A CSX train passes under the Western Maryalnd's Keystone Viaduct in November 2004. The train is lead by a BNSF widecab with a Santa Fe and a CSX unit trailing.
Looking west from the viaduct into the rocky cut leading away from Keystone Viaduct towards Glade City. The second photo is from the same location looking east onto the bridge. Both photos were taken on August 29, 1996. At this time no trail was planned here and the bridge is still the same as when it was abandoned. Today the crossties have been removed and a concrete deck was poured to open the bridge as part of the Allegheny Highlands Trail.
Looking east at the Keystone Viaduct in November 2004 after it has been redecked in concrete.
