Elmhurst

Some lighter trains cut helpers off at Elmhurst, location of a crossover and the Elmhurst Reservoir. Riding the Steamtown excursion, one can really see the grade the trains climb as the view from the train changes from looking up at the dam to level with the water to looking down at the shoreline. Below is an overview of the Elmhurst area. The reservoir will be in the corner of the backdrop, and the dam will be a flat along the backdrop to the left.
