What an awesome surprise for you! So glad you were in the right place at the right time to catch that one-of-a-kind move. And this showed up just in time for me to enjoy watching while I have my morning coffee, so nice surprise for me too lol. Hope you'll be able to do more railfanning on that line during your college years.

Thanks Jamie! Glad I could provide some entertainment for your morning! And yes, I definitely wanna get into filming some more around York. There is a good diverse range of older locomotives still used, as well as NS, plus lots of nice old scenery almost everywhere you look. Lots of possibilities!

The only customer on this spur line is J&K Salvage, which gets a gondola car of scrap metal hauled out once every few years. There are other branch tracks off the line into warehouses near J&K but they have all been disconnected. A few hundred feet south of J&K Salvage the line is owned by Northern Central RR and the rail has been removed as a d-mark to show the property line. Strange that a line that is so little used has had all new LED grade xing lights installed.

J&K stopped paying NS and YRC’s bills to get train cars so they stopped giving them Gondola cars

So let me ask you.. how did the NCR and Stewartstown power arrive there? I was told by the rail bike folks there is a physical break in the line from NCR to YCR outside the billiard station... The NCR wants to run to downtown York eventually

As far as I know there isn’t a break in the tracks that stops train movement; there might be a derail switch installed that can control when trains can pass over it, however, I am not sure

Genesee and Wyoming is buying up short lines everywhere. They have the Maryland Midland now too. Is that part of the old Northern Central?

So you're saying that this particular line is York Railway from downtown York to a certain point in which it turns into Northern Central?

@@erikbunty2016 Not really. The Northern Central was a line from Baltimore to Harrisburg running through York, long owned by the Pennsy. It was washed out in Maryland in 1972. The southern end is used by the Baltimore light rail. Some excursion trains run north of New Freedom, but I don't think there is any freight service there. I think that it is still an active line north of York. I was asking if what he showed is that line.

And there are actually several branches of York Railway, the main one going from York (at a junction with Norfolk Southern) to Porters Sideling (joining CSX).
