While not on former D&H property, certainly this group of
three images belongs. I spotted this class of 1980 Bethlehem graduate
gondola in stone service near Birdsboro, PA! There's a couple quarries
in the area, and it was parked in a cut of cars awaiting loading. HKGX
2081 was one of a class of 250 on the D&H. |
