    While looking for something else on the Internet, I found this sweet and wonderful Christmas composition as painted by Howard Fogg for the P&LE, set in Gateway Yard in Youngstown, OH. Gateway opened in 1957 and was closed by CSX in '93.

    Nice picture. I did a google search "P&LE gateway" images and found a treasure trove; before and after CSX abandonment. Here's one of the same location at a happier time.

    My pleasure, Hardcoaler. The Christmas postcard your shared is a very sweet picture that inspired me to look for other Gateway Yard pictures.
