Ma & Pa Railroad Heritage Village at Muddy Creek Forks Pa was flooded on Friday August 31.Several inches of mud lined the floors of all the buildings in the village after receiving 10 inches of rain in two hours.A pedestrian bridge, signage, trees and about 1.6 miles of railroad track were completely washed out.You can see some of the destruction on the Maryland and Pennsylvania Railroad Preservation Society Facebook page.

And as we type, another round of high water is receding in the region, AND a hurricane/tropical storm is poised to potentially pound the already-super-saturated area............
