Steamtown, Scranton



Uploaded by: gailontheweb
Video Description:
October 2, 2004
The weekend I met David he showed me around Scranton and I shot some video overlooking the Steamtown Historical Site. Ironically, the trains both have 'Canadian Pacific' on the side.
Music: "Allentown" by Billy Joel
"Allentown" is the second track on David's memorial CD because he was born there and a huge Billy Joel fan.

What exactly is bad about Scranton. Mayor Doherty is working feverishly to make our city the next TriBeCa, and I'm grinning with every new boutique, pub, restaurant, loft apartment, gallery, etc. that springs up! We're improving! ;o)

Pay attention to the lyrics and maybe you'll see the connection between this song, its industrial roots, and Scranton.
My husband was born in Allentown but lived and died in Scranton. See three comments above.

I've lived in 5 countries and I can tell you that sometimes the best way to appreciate a place is to leave it, at least for a while. Scranton is not the worst city I've ever seen, by any stretch of the imagination. Geographically, it's in a very good location and topographically it's a beautiful sight from the air (my husband was a pilot and we had our own airplane). In the fall, Scranton looks fantastic, especially its parks.

No. I meant to put a 4-6-2. Actually, he mentioned Pennsylvania K4 #1361. I saw no mention of the B&M pacific.

Yes, there are 2 pacifics being restored. The Pennsy K4 and the B&M 3713. I'm not sure which is further along in the restoration process.

Tke K4. Im hearing rumors she'll be back under steam by Early July

I've heard those rumors as well, but, I think that is a slim chance. It could happen, but it will probably happen later this year or during the next Steamtown Season.

A little birdie told me that she would be under steam next year. A little birdie at Steamtown.

Oh, Thank you for the update. Could you give us an estimate on how much longer it will take?

I have no idea because the people fro altoona are doing it. It is just at steamtown as a place to work on. The mechanics seem to think early next year.
