In the Beginning


Welcome to the Tuscarora Railroad. What you are about to read are the random musings of the Superintendent of the TRR, a small narrow gauge railroad operating in south-central Pennsylvania. You have become--by your presence here--the proverbial fly on the wall. You will be privy to an informal commentary on the "behind the scenes" aspects of the TRR. You'll learn the thought processes that underly the various projects the railroad takes on, maybe a bit of history, not only of the TRR, but of the East Broad Top and Tuscarora Valley railroads (with which the TRR connects), and hopefully take away a nugget or two that you can use for your own railroads.
