https://www.trains.com/trn/news-reviews ... -northern/ Brother Cupper reports: Quote: GETTYSBURG, Pa. — Patriot Rail, a short line company that operates 32 railroads across the United States, is planning to revive passenger service on the Gettysburg & Northern Railroad in 2025, to capitalize on the millions of tourists who pour into this Civil War mecca each year. G&N will join two other active Patriot Rail tourist lines, Blue Ridge Scenic Railway in Georgia and Granite State Scenic in New Hampshire, recently rebranded from its previous name, Hobo Railroad. Much more detail, including planned equipment, at the link. (And sorry, but there's a reason you should subscribe.) |
