The Summit of the Allegheny Mountains. At 2,000 feet above sea level, the sights and sounds of trains battling the Allegany mountain grades are easily enjoyed from our back porch. Our chiminea takes the chill out of the cold mountain air, and our floodlights provide great night time viewing of all the rail action.

- This c.1902-1904 view shows the Gallitzin Tunnel project underway with SF tower on the left. Allegheny Tunnel came first and is two tracks. The Gallitzin Tunnel was completed in 1904 and was a single track tunnel primarily for westbound trains. It was closed in 1995 when the Allegheny Tunnel was enlarged for doublestack trains. PRR 1699 in the photo is a few years old H6 class 2-8-0 built at the Juniata Shops.
