Reply to "Midweek Photos 5/4/2016"

Rail cars weren't the only things built at the Berwick AC&F plant. During the 1940s thousands of Stuart Light Tanks and other military equipment were built at the Berwick AC&F plant. In march 2016 one of those tanks returned home. The plan is to eventually have the Stuie Tank placed at the entrance to the industrial park, which was once home to the American Car and Foundry in Berwick, PA. It will serve as a memorial to the Stuie Tanks, the factory, and the thousands of people who worked there. The first three photos I took during a small parade held for its homecoming. The last two photos date to the 1940s and show a line of PRR gondolas loaded with Stuart tanks under tarps and a line of flat cars loaded with bulldozers at the Berwick AC&F ready to be shipped out to war.
