other dog Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Ran two trips to Pa. and back this week with no breakdowns...yay!Saw a big Mack truck in New Castle, Pa.And a covered bridge near Greenville.I dropped down 219 again and got a better picture of the remains of the South Fork Dam. You can see the observation decks on both sides in this picture. There's one on each end of the dam remains, with the old lakebed behind. The water was up to the top of the dam when it gave way, so that gives you an idea of just how much water there was.And I stopped where the old ship hotel was and looked around. Lots of debris scattered down the mountain side, still some burnt timbers and lots of twisted metal mostly.Newspaper article about the fire-https://www.lincolnhighwayassoc.org/ca/traveler/2002-01/ship_hotel.shtmlNice view-Some early history and postcards here-http://roadsidephotos.sabr.org/LH/grandview.htmThis little building across the road used to be a service station-Aerial photo,1941. Pretty neat stuff,eh?Saw a Ford wrecker truck a little farther down the hill.Don't see this much anymore- a pay phone!Another Ford. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

yarnall Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 My CF719 might have been at that fire. Both Bedford and New Baltimore were there and it was in one of them at the time. Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
