Another Storm Through Carbondale & Scranton – Coca-Cola & Lackawanna Country Railroad

Another Storm Through Carbondale - Coca-Cola & Lackawanna Country Railroad
Photo Storm that is. I snapped this Coke ad last summer but lost the camera at the Madonna Concert (wild night) before downloading the images. This morning I drove through the dusting of snow to Carbondale to retrace the steps Vincenzo and I took. It’ll take several weeks to post the gigabyte of images uncovered today- from rooftops to train tracks.

Skeletal images in some of the lettering of the Lackawanna County Railroad caught my eye. I climbed the catwalk and took a close-up of one of the urban ediglyphs.
