East Broad Top Locomotive, 1907
The East Broad Top locomotive working Mount Union in 1907, a narrow-gauge workhorse hauling coal from the Broad Top mines to the PRR main line. The EBT was the connecting link between the mines to the west and the wider rail network that fed America's steel mills.

Nothing further from the county histories. The six histories held here end in 1913 and this story belongs to 2015, so there is no passage in them that bears on it. Rather than attach an unrelated page and let it look like corroboration, this story stands on the sources listed below.
