Title:  RBMN 803
Description:  No passenger rides today through the Lehigh Gorge but the trains still keep rolling. RBMN 803, a former Lehigh Valley Railroad SW-8, assists in switching the railroad's historic passenger car fleet on former CNJ iron. This locomotive, originally LV 270, was constructed in 1951 and has since been upgraded as an SW-8m. The tower from the old station can be seen above the train"off to the right.
