The Frozen Lake Enlarges -- February 2, 2004
Well it's Ground Hog Day, again, and that must mean
here we are at Punxatawny, Pennsylvania. Not quite.
-
And the Timson Creek bridge is still standing, with ice
within two inches of the deck.
-
The river deepens. The river widens. The river is frozen.
-
What a mess. Now the entire southwest bend is flooded and
frozen. This stuff is amazing.
-
I used to run the locomotive across the short span that was
iced over, rerailing it on the other side. Can't do it now.
-
Here's the view from upstream. It will be a long time until
this opens again. I was able to do trackwork on the east end.
-
Check out the upper lake on the other side of the rock wall.
-
And the lower lake. It will be a long time before this is gone.
