The Strasburg Railroad is both a tourist railway and a working freight railroad located in the heart of the Amish farmland of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.  It's one of the most successful of the steam driven tourist railroads in Pennsylvania and a frequent stop on my photo travels.  This past weekend I stopped and got some shots of the control tower which is found on the western end of the rail yard.
