| Description: |
This station was built in 1852 for the PRR. It was the first station in town. Because of the Johnstown Flood of 1889, the tracks and station were relocated to higher ground almost a mile east, so a new station had to be built. This is now a private residence. |

Bridges! |
| Description: |
NS rail train 93A rolls east across the Conemaugh River just south of the Conemaugh Dam near Blairsville, PA, in sweet light! The train is also crossing the old alignment of the PRR Conemaugh Line, relocated during the dam construction. My first ever moving train on the Conemaugh Line, and with a nice blue sky, it's hard to believe that tomorrow will bring several feet of snow to the area. |
