Summary: "In 2010-11, the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) undertook a project to upgrade electrical transmission along the right-of-way of the former Atglen & Susquehanna (A&S) Branch of the former Pennsylvania Raioroad (PRR) between the Safe Harbor Dam on the Susquehanna River in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania and its Keystone Corridor near Parkesburg, Chester County, Pennsylvania. This upgrade was necessary to provide safe, reliable electrical service for its passenger trains both on the Keystone Corridor...and on the Northeast Corridor. The original electrical transmission infrastructure...was more than 20 years beyond its serviceable life, was subject to frequent outages caused by storms, ice, wind and fallen trees, and had become increasingly less reliable."
