We are heading to Altoona PA on Friday October 3rd (thru Sun the 5th) to visit the famous Horshoe Curve and Rail Roaders Memorial Museum. If youre a train buff, you don't want to miss this.
Horseshoe Curve is a three-track railroad curve in Blair County, Pennsylvania. It was completed in 1854 by the Pennsylvania Railroad as a way to lessen the grade to the summit of the Allegheny Mountains.
Rail Roaders Memorial Museum The museum is dedicated to revealing, interpreting, commemorating and celebrating the significant contributions of railroaders and their families to American life and industry.
The campers in the group will be camping at Wright's Orchard Station Campground, but there are lots of hotels & motels withing just a few blocks so our non-camping members can come along as well. This is going to be an incredible cruise through the PA countryside at the beginning of the fall foliage season. Hope to see you there
So far Jack & JoAnn, Tracy and I and George G and his wife are going... Anybody else?
