One of Pennsylvania's many coal-hauling short lines and part of Bethlehem Steel's railroad family, the Cambria and Indiana hauled coal from its namesake counties in western Pennsylvania for decades. In 1976, this small line took part in the national celebration of our Bicentennial, painting not only a locomotive but also two hoppers and a caboose for the event. The operation was a hold out to a simpler era, but the pride of the employees showed in how they maintained their equipment. The C&I maintained its fleet of 55 ton hoppers and switchers well; so much so that they were still in service into the 1990s! The Bicentennial train was but one colorful chapter in that history. This great set brings you the full red, white and blue train plus two additional hoppers. Another hopper two pack and yellow and black SW9 are available separately to help recreate a full coal train.
