CONRAIL THE WEST SLOPE

Conrail’s West Slope’s average grade of 1% is easier than the 1.5% grade of the East Slope, but it is longer, so helpers are needed for both ascending and descending the grade. This VIDEO covers the line through this fantastic helper district. You’ll see tremendous action between Gallitzin, PA and Johnstown, PA. We’ll see the tunnels at Gallitzin; village of Cresson (where helpers are based); action at Lilli; Casandra (deep rock cut); action at Summer-hill; Southfork (and the connection with the branchline); Mineral Point (and the beautiful valley below); and finally Johnstown.
