It's 1943 and the country is at war. Allied victories are turning the tide of the war and America's industries and the country's railroads, big and small, are doing their part. The Maryland & Pennsylvania RR (Affectionately known as The Ma & Pa) might not have been as busy as the big RRs, still played its part in contributing to the eventual Allied victory.
Come and see this all relived again as I build an HO scale version of The Ma & Pa, 1943.

Once again,thank you Dick Bradley for providing the answer to last week's Where is this Wednesday. It can be found in the comment section. :)
I made the Kodachrome slide of the west side if Kendig trestle on November 21, 1969 . Kendig trestle is on the Ma & Pa main line at mile mark 69.5; That's 0.8 mile south of Yoe. Built in 1914, Kendig trestle is 229' 7" long with a maximum height of 27' 7". A fascinating early view of the east side of Kendig trestle is in the Ma & Pa RR Historical Society calendar for September 2003. Dick Bradley
