Forgive me if this is old news, I hadn't seen it before.

From Railway Age: Pioneer buys Gettysburg lines

Pioneer Railcorp has purchased the 25-mile Gettysburg Railway and is operating it as the Gettysburg & Northern. The line, laid with 130-pound rail, runs from a CSX Transportation connection at Gettysburg to a Norfolk Southern connection at Mount Holly Springs, Pa. Pioneer expects it to handle approximately 2,000 carloads a year for such customers as Inland Container, Knouse Foods Cooperative, Cadbury-Motts, and Ziegler Brothers. Pioneer also purchased the Gettysburg Scenic Railway, which will be the short line holding company's first major tourist operation. The Gettysburg rail properties were formerly owned by John H. Marino of Manassas, Va.
