This beautiful old view from the Tschudy collection shows the Pennsylvania's main line going from two to four tracks east of the bridge over the Conestoga at Lancaster. The track going off to the left beyond the tower is that of the D. & L., branch to New Holland and the over pass in the distance carried what is now Pitney Road. Photo, James A. Tschudy, Ephrata, Pa.
