A Day at Muddy Creek Forks PA (with Ma & Pa RR ride)

Or...THE BEST 45 MINUTES YOU'LL EVER SPEND AT MUDDY CREEK FORKS!

Come spend a day with us, and maybe learn something as well! We'll check out the historic A.M. Grove Store/Station, have a look at the roller mill, the yard, and-above all-take a cab ride on the historic Maryland & Pennsylvania Railroad (which we aficionados like to refer to as the Ma & Pa)!

We begin at the Grove store which also once served as the train station and post office for MC Forks (before the area became part of the Airville postal zone). We'll be treated to some player-piano music-and music from an old Victrola! Can you believe that that was once considered state-of-the-art? We then get put through the wringer.

Then-our train ride up the historic line northwest through High Rock to the Laurel passing siding. I utilized footage from my lady's camera as well here (the picture-in-picture) for a different perspective. My camera was zoomed out; hers was set at wide-angle. Notice how in the main zoomed image the train doesn't appear to be going too fast, while in the inset images she shot the train appears to go MUCH faster! I synched the images as best as I could. Heading out, the sun affected some images, but on the return trip, the sun was behind and results were great!

Then-more of the A.M. Grove Store. The lighting in this store was once powered by a low-voltage DC system before receiving conventional AC power in the 1940s. We'll see the wooden hand-operated elevator that we saw in the 2008 video (assuming you watched), but for the first time we'll see the landing on the first floor.

This store is WONDERFUL!! Like stepping back in time! Those of you who visited the Cass (Scenic RR) Country Store in West Virginia will delight in this! And the people are friendly and incredible!

Then-a quick look at the Roller Mill and RR yard where EMD SW-9 #82 (1951) awaits us. For the moment, engine rust (and logistics) prevent this unit from being operated, but if it could be, the Laurel passing siding would make the perfect runaround point for this locomotive, a la Strasburg RR at Leaman Place!

All in all, a great day at MC forks!! A splendid time is guaranteed for all!

A very big Thank You MUST go out to all at MC Forks!! Much appreciation for appearing in this video, and relating the history and anecdotes of the area! Hats Off to the Preservation Society for finding a way to keep this going! Please visit their website at And be sure to check out the Explore/Galleries/Videos tab for more Ma & Pa vids!

Also-a Thank You to the late Charles T. Mahan whose photos got me into Ma & Pa. I had the pleasure of meeting this gentleman in 1988.

Video date: June 14 2015.
