On my way home from Dubois, Pa along 219, I crossed over the abandoned line [don't recall who operated it] in Salamanca and, as always, I looked down the ROW [looking east]. To my surprise, there is/was a caboose parked there. Never saw it there before. Even with the leaves off the trees it was hard to differentiate between the trees and the caboose. The color was something like a pale yellow. I didn't stop to get details.
Looking at Google, there is no caboose parked on the wye. I was actually surprised that the rails went as deep into the trees as it shows. Street view showed nothing but heavy trees. Does the B&P own/operate with a caboose? Perhaps as a shove unit? I would guess that the distance from the caboose to 219 is less than 300 feet.
