BWCX Personnel ~ 1968 |
| Description: |
BWCX. Here is a photo taken by Donny Garman at the Berwind-White Railroad Car Shops in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, during August of 1968. Shown here is laborer Thomas C. Ayers, lounging on a newly-painted TrailerTrain flatcar. I worked at BWCX for five Summers: 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, and 1968. During that time, I came to appreciate not only meaning of physical labor, but also the importance of labor unions. |

BWCX Physical Plant ~ 2015 |
| Description: |
BWCX. Here is an aerial-drone image taken by Lance R. Myers during 2015. Pictured here are what used to be the grounds of the Berwind-White Railroad Car Shops in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania. It looked a lot different in 1964 than it does now: the New Frame Shop is still there, but all of the original wooden shops and the big grassy field are long gone! A portion of Scotch Valley Road is visible at the left. Photo credit: Lance R. Myers, AltoonaWorks.Info (FaceBook Group). |

BWCX. Here is an aerial-drone image taken by Lance R. Myers during 2019. Pictured here are what used to be the grounds of the Berwind-White Railroad Car Shops. It looked a lot different in 1964 than it does now: the New Frame Shop is still there, but all of the original wooden shops and the big grassy field are long gone. Even the railroad car storage tracks are empty! A portion of Scotch Valley Road is visible at the left. Photo credit: Lance R. Myers, AltoonaWorks.Info (FaceBook Group). |
