Something random from Fogelsville PA.

Hello everyone. This video is a quick look at the terminus of the Catasaqua and Foglesville spur that would have serviced the Lehigh Cement company. Before any of the industrial park was even a thought there was once a huge cement factory with two open pit quarries just west of our location. This railroad would have continued on just a couple hundred yards to service this huge facility. This line would have come off the Catasaqua and Foglesville main line about a mile or two to the east. The spur construction would have been somewhere around 1906 I believe. At this time in history the Catasaqua and Foglesville was under Reading railroad control. Soon after the closing and dismantling of the Lehigh Cement company in 1970 the land began to become an industrial park. Many industrial spurs were put in of the original spur. Let's go check one of these out. Thanks for watching 1/13/24
