LV 15661 |
| Description: |
A fitting display in this former LV town, this old coal hopper is part of a proposed museum to include the former shops, off to the right, and one of the stations, partly visable on the left. Another former station, now the borough hall, sits out of sight to the left of this photo. Weatherly, PA was home to the Lehigh Valley Railroad engine shops from 1867 until 1910. |
